This M8 inductive sensor detects the presence of metal targets without contact, switching a PNP normally open output when a target enters its rated operating distance of 2 mm. The flush-mount, stainless steel housing with PBT sensing face and IP68 rating suits installation in tight, exposed locations on machines and panels where the sensor may be mounted level with surrounding metalwork. It operates from a 10–30 VDC supply and terminates in a 2 m PUR cable, making it suitable for direct wiring into control cabinets or junction boxes.
