An industrial stainless steel inductive sensor NMF12162 is specifically designed for reliable operation in harsh environments with dust, dirt, metal particles, and temperature fluctuations.
The industrial M12 sensor is part of a product range developed for modern manufacturing and automation installations requiring reliable and wear-resistant components. Ø12 x 50 mm sensors provide adequate working space around the sensing element for reliable operation.
Technical specification:
- Diameter: M12, stable and reliable operation in demanding industrial environments
- Length: 50 mm, easy integration with standard mounting systems and fixtures
- Sensing range: 4 mm
- Housing: Threaded sensor
- Housing material: Stainless steel housing
- Sensor face material: Stainless steel housing
- Mounting: Flush mounting, reduced lateral detection field for precise sensing performance
- Switching function: NC, normally closed (NC) output state in idle condition
- Cable length: n/d
- Supply voltage: DC 10-30V, compatibility with PLC control systems and industrial automation networks
Applications
- They enhance quality control through reliable part presence detection and inspection processes.
- Delivers reliable performance in high-speed and demanding industrial machining environments.
- Integrated into packaging forming and sealing machines.
- Monitors the position of robotic grippers and end-effectors.
- Supports actuator control systems and industrial mechanical assemblies.
Features & Benefits
- Easy integration with robotic systems and PLC control systems.
- Reliable detection of workpiece and tool positions.
- Compact design enabling installation in space-limited applications.
- Compatibility with industrial robots and EOAT (End-of-Arm Tooling) systems.
- Versatile application across various types of OEM equipment.
When to choose this model
- Ideal for demanding industrial applications requiring reliable long-distance metal detection.
- Performs reliably in 24/7 production lines and high-duty-cycle automation systems.
- Provides an excellent balance of extended sensing range, durability, and operational stability.
- A universal all-metal sensor solution for medium-demanding applications requiring extended detection range, high mechanical strength, and long-term reliability.
Connection
The sensor has an NPN output, so connect it with an M12 4-pin connection cable without LEDs. Cables with LEDs (NXOC12281…, NXOC12401…) have a yellow status LED wired for a PNP output and are not suitable for NPN sensors.
The diameter of an inductive sensor is a dimension that defines the width of the sensor element measured in millimeters. This is an important technical parameter as it affects the mounting method and the space required for installation.
Rated detection range is a key parameter of an inductive sensor.Indicates the distance at which the sensor changes its output state when a metal object approaches its front end axially.This is the sensor's most important functional feature—it determines how close the object being detected must be in order to be registered.
