Inductive Sensor M30, DC 2 wire, Normally Closed, Flush – PRT30-10DC
DESCRIPTION
Autonics inductive proximity sensor M30, NC – PRT30-10DC
Shield (flush), Cable type connection, 10 mm Sensing distance
The Autonics proximity sensor PRT30-10DC features outstanding noise protection and stable sensing performance due to its specialized sensor IC developed by Autonics. This NC proximity switch comes in a round cylindrical shape, sensing distance of 10mm, sensing side diameter and housing size of m30 and Shield (flush) installation. The standard cylindrical inductive sensor can be used in diverse applications requiring non-contact detection of metallic objects.
As a quick report, this inductive proximity sensor provides:
- 30 mm sensing side diameter
- Normally Closed control output
- 10 mm sensing distance
- Shield (flush) installation
- Long life cycle and reliable simple operations
- Reverse polarity, surge, and over-current protection
- IP67 ingress protection structure according to IEC standards
- Red LED status indicator
- Alternative to micro switches and limit switches.
Body
This proximity sensor’s case and nut parts are made of nickel-plated brass, its sensing side is made of PBT, and its washer is nickel plated iron made.
The PRT30-10DC features IP67 ingress protection.
The red LED on its body acts as the process indicator.
Connection
The Autonics PR Series proximity sensor PRT30-10DC features standard cable type connection. This black cable covers the sensor’s 2 wires. It is 5 mm in diameter and 2 meters in length, and is made of PVC.
Sensing specifications
This inductive sensor’s sensing side diameter is 30 mm. The maximum distance that this sensor can detect its standard sensing target, which is an 30x30x1 mm piece of iron, is 10 mm. This so-called sensing distance differs from one sensing target to another, based on their material, size, etc.
Although almost no one talks about the setting distance of an inductive sensor, it is a big deal to know this concept. Every sensor can detect its standard sensing target in a specified range, no matter what changes occur in ambient temperature, voltage fluctuations, etc. This distance, which is called the setting distance, is from 0 to 7 mm for this proximity sensor.
Control output
The PRT30-10DC features Normally Closed control output.
