These cylindrical magnetic sensors are available in M8, M12 and M18 metal housings. The listed models use either a DC NPN normally open output or an AC two-wire normally open output. They have a 10mm nominal sensing distance, 100Hz response and IP67 protection. Check the sensing arrangement with the actual magnet and mounting. A red LED indicates operation.

Application Conditions
These sensors are intended for ordinary industrial control. Nuclear, gas or power systems requiring exceptional reliability, personal-safety functions, harsh outdoor or contaminated environments, fire or explosion hazards, military use and aerospace require a specifically designed and confirmed configuration.
