Inductive sensor M30 metal face 55 mm cable 2m PNP NC Sn = 13 mm NF

The NMF30014-NF inductive sensor is a solution designed specifically for detecting aluminium, retaining the full Sn sensing range thanks to the correction factor K = 1.

The M30 model represents a sensor line for applications in harsh operating conditions. The Ø30 x 55 mm housing provides maximum installation stability in heavy-industry systems and large production machinery.

Technical specification:

• Diameter: M30, maximum detection range in this size class expands application possibilities
• Length: 55 mm, used in large industrial installations requiring high reliability
• Detection range: 13 mm, non-contact detection of metal objects with high repeatability
• Detected materials: Aluminium and other non-ferrous metals (steel ignored), steel and its derivatives are not a detection target, which reduces the number of unwanted signals in aluminium processes
• Correction factor K: K = 1 for aluminium (full rated sensing range), the full rated range for aluminium makes it easier to design applications without additional assumptions about range reduction
• Housing: Threaded, a standard solution used in industrial automation and control systems
• Housing material: Stainless steel, increased mechanical strength of the housing ensures a long service life
• Sensor face material: Stainless steel, resistance to corrosion in humid and chemical environments
• Mounting: Non-flush mounting, wider lateral field of action expands application possibilities
• Switching function: NC, constant signal monitoring within the control system
• Cable length: 2 m, cable sensors have a fixed, factory-made electrical connection to the installation
• Supply voltage: DC 10-30V, protection against typical supply voltage fluctuations

Applications

• Quality control in series production – The NF proximity sensor supports quality control and presence checking of aluminium parts during series production.
• Inspection before resistance welding – The NF sensor supports automatic position checking of parts before resistance-welding aluminium components at welding stations.
• Stamping and blanking presses – The aluminium detector is used in presses for stamping and blanking aluminium parts.
• Packaging and labelling – Applications of the NF non-contact sensor include checking the presence of aluminium parts at packaging and labelling stations.
• Inspection of non-ferrous metal components – Applications of the NF inductive sensor include checking the position of parts made of aluminium and other non-ferrous metals.

Benefits/Features

• Non-ferrous metal detection – the device performs well when inspecting parts made of aluminium and other non-ferrous materials, where fine metal residue should not be treated as the actual workpiece.
• Reduction of unwanted signals – disregarding individual filings and chips can reduce unwanted signals in processes where the actual target is a larger, solid aluminium workpiece.
• Operating selectivity – the ability to disregard individual filings and chips allows operation to be focused on the actual aluminium workpiece.
• Inspection of the actual workpiece – the solution is designed to detect aluminium and non-ferrous parts, not individual fragments generated during machining.
• Detection excluding filings and chips as the actual target – the solution was designed to inspect a solid aluminium part, not to detect fine machining residue.

When to choose this model

• For aluminium cutting – the sensor for detecting aluminium will work well for checking the presence and position of parts before a cutting operation.
• For automatic metal presence inspection – the metal presence detector can be used to confirm the presence of the actual aluminium workpiece in the process.
• When the process generates aluminium filings – choose this model if the actual detection target is a larger, solid workpiece, and individual filings should not be treated as the actual part.
• When you need a specialized solution for aluminium and non-ferrous metals – choose a full-metal inductive sensor with K = 1 and a genuine rated range, designed for non-contact detection of actual workpieces in processes such as cutting, stamping, welding, resistance welding and automatic assembly, without being aimed at detecting individual filings and chips.
