RS PRO Threaded Barrel Capacitive Proximity Sensor 5 mm Detection Range M18 x 1 Thread, NPN Output 15mA Switching 184-5604

RS PRO 184-5604 Threaded Barrel Capacitive Proximity Sensor features a robust M18 x 1 threaded barrel design with a compact 70mm length and flush mount type, ideal for industrial automation and control systems.

This sensor detects both metallic and non-metallic objects with a maximum sensing distance of 5 mm, providing high precision and reliability in industrial, laboratory, and manufacturing environments.

Featuring an NPN output type with a switching current of 15mA, it supports a maximum supply voltage of 30V AC/DC, suitable for safe and efficient operation in a range of control circuits.

The sensor body is constructed from polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), offering excellent chemical resistance and durability against environmental factors, while its IP67 protection ensures suitability for harsh and dusty industrial settings.

Operating temperature range from -25°C to 70°C allows usage in varied climate conditions and process environments. The device comes with a 2-meter PVC pre-cabled terminal connection facilitating straightforward integration in demanding setups.

These capacitive proximity sensors are widely used for material detection, level sensing, thickness measurement, and pressure monitoring in sectors such as manufacturing plants, laboratories, water treatment, and automation systems.

The sensor design allows flush mounting to blend seamlessly into machinery or equipment housing. Shielding ensures minimized electromagnetic interference, improving signal stability. The compact 70 mm length aids in installations where space is limited.

The 15mA switching current supports efficient load handling for typical automation control inputs. The robust PBT housing material supports long-term operation in industrial atmospheres. IP67 rating renders the sensor waterproof and dust-tight, enhancing reliability.

Detection capabilities cover a wide range of materials, both metallic and non-metallic. Operating temperature tolerance supports use across different industrial and environmental conditions. Set contains 1 RS PRO Capacitive Proximity Sensor with 2m PVC cable pre-cabled terminal for immediate use.
