RS PRO Threaded Barrel Capacitive Proximity Sensor M18 x 1, 5 mm Detection, NPN Output 15 mA 30 V DC 1000 V AC 184-5605

RS PRO 184-5605 is a highly reliable Threaded Barrel Capacitive Proximity Sensor with M18 x 1 threaded size, designed for detecting metallic and non-metallic objects accurately within a 5 mm range. It features a threaded barrel body style with a length of 83.5 mm, making it suitable for flush mounting in various industrial applications.

The sensor uses capacitive proximity sensing technology which detects changes in capacitance caused by the presence or absence of objects, providing versatile detection capabilities in manufacturing plants, laboratories, and process control systems. The NPN output and 15 mA switching current ensure stable and consistent operation.

Operating within a temperature range from -25°C up to 70°C, this sensor is built with a polybutylene terephthalate housing material combining durability and heat resistance. Its IP67 rating confirms excellent protection against dust ingress and water immersion, enhancing its applicability in harsh industrial environments.

The sensor includes an M12 connector interface for secure and standardized connection options, supporting operational voltages up to 30 V DC and 1000 V AC. Shielded sensing helps to minimize interference and improves switching frequency reliability at up to 50 Hz.

Typical usage includes level sensing of materials, pressure monitoring, thickness measurement, flow detection, and more across industrial automation, HVAC, water treatment, and manufacturing processes requiring precise object detection regardless of material type.
