CJT inductive sensors provide contactless metal position detection in round PBT housings with two mounting tabs. Select the sensing distance and iron target size together, then choose a DC NPN/PNP three-wire circuit, DC two-wire circuit or AC two-wire circuit. A red LED indicates operation, and enclosure protection is IP67. When replacing a mechanical position switch, match the sensing arrangement, mounting clearance, switching circuit and load.
| Housing group | Nominal sensing distance | Setting distance | Standard iron target | Average DC response frequency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CJT36-07 | 7mm | 0-5.5mm | 50×50×1mm | 300Hz |
| CJT42-10 | 10mm | 0-7.5mm | 55×55×1mm | 200Hz |
| CJT48-15 | 15mm | 0-12.5mm | 60×60×1mm | 100Hz |
| CJT55-20 | 20mm | 0-15.5mm | 80×80×1mm |
Response frequency is an average measured with the standard sensing target, target spacing twice the standard target width and a sensing gap equal to half the nominal sensing distance. AC two-wire models have a specified average response frequency of 20Hz.
