RS PRO Threaded Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensor M12 x 1, PNP Output, 30 V DC, 4 mm Detection Range, 200 mA 206-6157

RS PRO 206-6157 Threaded Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensor M12 x 1, PNP Output, 30 V DC, 4 mm Detection Range is engineered for precise and reliable non-contact sensing in industrial automation.

This sensor detects both metallic and plastic targets with a maximum detection range of 4 mm. Its nickel-plated brass cylindrical housing and IP67 protection enable use in harsh environments requiring resistance to dust and water ingress.

Operating voltage ranges from 10 to 30 V DC and supports a switching current of 200 mA. The sensor’s PNP output type and attached 2 meter cable with 3 cores and PVC sheath allow easy interfacing with control systems such as PLCs.

The device operates with a switching frequency of up to 2 kHz, making it suitable for high-speed detection tasks in assembly lines, packaging machinery, and presence detection on conveyor systems. It supports flush mounting using the supplied nickel-plated brass mounting nuts, with a maximum tightening torque of 12 N·m.

Included protections against wiring faults such as short-circuit, reverse-polarity, and power-up pulses ensure durability and reduce damage risk. This sensor is suitable for use across a wide temperature range from -25°C to 75°C.

PNP output for integration with PLC inputs requiring positive switching signals. Highly durable nickel-plated brass body with IP67 ingress protection. Precise 4 mm sensing distance for close proximity detection. Robust electrical protections extend sensor lifecycle in industrial environments.

Cable length of 2 meters facilitates flexible installation in control panels and machinery. Operating temperature range suitable for varied industrial ambient conditions. Ideal for end-of-travel sensing, part counting, and position feedback in automated systems.

Manufactured in Hungary meeting international approvals including UL and CE.
