This is an M18 inductive proximity sensor with an IO-Link 1.1 interface, housed in stainless steel with a PBT sensing face, suitable for non-flush mounting. It has a rated operating distance of 12mm, PNP/NPN/push-pull NO/NC switching, and connects via an M12x1, 4-pin A-coded male connector. Rated IP68 and IP69K, it is suited to environments requiring washdown or high-pressure cleaning, such as food and beverage or heavy industrial plant. Operating from 10-30 VDC, it is typically specified for panel-mounted machine automation where position or object detection with digital process data is required.
