Description

<p>In the realm of industrial and commercial applications, precision and reliability are paramount. The Proximity Sensor at hand is designed to meet these needs with its robust feature set. With a sensing range of 0-2.1 mm, it offers precise detection capabilities suitable for various automation tasks.</p><p>Operating within a rated voltage of 12-24 VDC and consuming less than 15 mA of current, this sensor ensures energy efficiency while maintaining optimal performance. Its housing is crafted from PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate), which provides excellent durability and resistance to environmental stresses, making it ideal for challenging industrial environments.</p><p>The sensor boasts an impressive degree of protection with IP68 and IP68G ratings, ensuring complete dust ingress protection and prolonged immersion in water without compromising functionality. This makes it particularly useful in settings where moisture or particulate matter could be a concern.</p><p>Designed to operate under extreme conditions, the sensor functions reliably across a broad operational temperature range from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius. This wide temperature tolerance allows for deployment in both freezing cold warehouses and hot manufacturing facilities alike.</p><p>Weighing in at just 20 grams, the sensor is lightweight yet resilient against mechanical shocks up to 10,000 ms. Its shock resistance adds another layer of reliability when used in high-vibration environments or where accidental impacts might occur.</p><p>The cable length extends up to 1 meter, providing flexibility during installation while maintaining strong signal integrity thanks to its insulation resistance rated at 50 MOhm. For ease of use during operation checks or troubleshooting, an orange LED indicator lights up when the sensor is active.</p><p>Additionally, the humidity operating range between 35% and 95% ensures that the device remains functional even in highly humid conditions—another testament to its design robustness.</p><p>In summary, this Proximity Sensor combines precision detection with rugged construction suited for diverse industrial applications. Its features ensure dependable performance while adhering to stringent safety standards—a reliable choice for engineers seeking quality assurance without compromise on technical specifications.</p>
