Autonics PR08-1.5DP-V Inductive proximity sensor

high durability, PNP Normally Open, Shield (flush)

The PR08-1.5DP-V inductive proximity sensor features solid sensing performance and excellent noise immunity with a specialized sensor IC developed by Autonics. This standard cylindrical inductive sensor can be easily used in diverse applications requiring detection of metallic objects without any direct contact.

As a quick report, this inductive proximity sensor provides:

• Shield (flush)installation
• 8 mm sensing side diameter
• 3-wire cable connection
• Simple operation, reliable performance, and high durability
• Operation indicator (red LED)
• Durable and reliable alternative to micro switches and limit switches
• Built-in surge protection circuit
• Built-in overcurrent protection circuit
• Built-in reverse polarity protection circuit

Body

The PR08-1.5DP-V case is made of nickel-plated brass, its washer is made of nickel-plated iron, and the material of its sensing side is PBT.

Protection structure of this proximity sensor is IP67 (IEC standard).

This sensor has a red LED as the operation indicator on its body.

Connection

Connection of the PR08-1.5DP-V is cable type which contains a cable covering its 3 wires. This oil resistant cable is gray and made of oil resistant PVC.

Sensing specifications

The diameter of the PR08-1.5DP-V sensing side is 8 mm and its sensing distance is 1.5 mm. Although almost no one talks about the setting distance of an inductive sensor, it should be announced that for this sensor, it is 0 to 1.05 mm.

Also, it should always be considered that this data is reported for the secure and standard sensing target, which is an 8x8x1 mm piece made of iron, for this product.

Control output

The control output of the case study proximity sensor is PNP Normally Open.

Temperature

There are limitations in environment temperature and humidity in which PR08-1.5DP-V proximity sensor is used:

• Ambient temperature: -25 … 70°C
• Ambient humidity: 35 to 95%RH
• Storage temperature: -30 … 80°C
• Storage humidity: 35 to 95%RH

Environment resistance is rated at no freezing or condensation.

It’s better not to use this product outside of these ranges, in order to keep it stable.
