RS PRO Cylindrical Inductive Proximity Sensor, M12 x 1 PNP 30V 4 mm 30 V dc 200mA

SICK Proximity Sensor, 50mm Length, 4mm Maximum Detection - 1113870

This proximity sensor is a stainless-steel, flush-mount M12 cylindrical device designed to detect plastic targets in industrial environments. It operates on DC supply and provides a PNP normally-open switching output via a 2m cable, combining robust ingress protection with suitability for applications exposed to coolants and lubricants.

Features & Benefits

• 4mm sensing distance delivers accurate plastic detection
  IP68 and IP69K enclosure resists water and high‑pressure washdowns
  Operating range −40°C to 100°C enables high‑temperature deployment
  10V to 30V DC supply supports common industrial control voltages
  2kHz switching frequency allows fast response in automation
  200mA continuous switching current suits direct‑drive loads

**Applications**

• Suitable for coolant‑laden machining centres requiring flush sensors
  Ideal for mobile machinery with exposure to lubricants
  Used for plastic part detection on conveyor lines
  Can be used in tight assemblies where stainless housing is required

How is the sensor connected electrically?

It uses a three‑wire DC cable of 2m length with PNP normally‑open output and integrated short‑circuit, reverse‑polarity and power‑up Pulse protection.

What mechanical fittings are supplied for installation?

A V2A stainless‑steel mounting nut with locking teeth is included to secure flush mounting.

How does the device cope with electrical interference?

The unit conforms to EMC standards for industrial switches and incorporates shielding and reproducibility under varying supply and temperature.

What mechanical durability can I expect under vibration and shock?

The sensor meets defined shock and vibration resistance levels, including multiple g‑load cycles and frequency ranges for industrial use.
