Inductive Sensor M5, PNP NO, Flush – DW-AS-623-M5
DESCRIPTION
Contrinex proximity sensor M5, PNP NO – DW-AS-623-M5
Embeddable (flush), M8 3-pin, 5 mm Sensing distance
The Contrinex proximity sensor DW-AS-623-M5 features outstanding noise protection and stable sensing performance due to its specialized sensor IC developed by Contrinex. This PNP proximity switch comes in a round cylindrical shape, sensing distance of 1.5mm, sensing side diameter and housing size of M5, 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:
- 5 mm sensing side diameter
- PNP Normally Open control output
- 1.5 mm sensing distance
- Embeddable (flush) installation
- Long life cycle and simple operations
- protections against short-circuits, induced overvoltages, and power supply reversal built-in
- IP67 ingress protection structure according to IEC standards
- Red LED status indicator
Body
This Contrinex proximity sensor’s case and nut parts are made of Stainless-steel V2A and its sensing side is made of POM.
The DW-AS-623-M5 features IP67 ingress protection.
The LED on its body acts as the process indicator.
Connection
The Contrinex M5 PNP proximity switch DW-AS-623-M5 features a potted connector S8 connection. It is a 3-pin M8 electrical connection.
Sensing specifications
This inductive sensor’s sensing side diameter is 5 mm. This sensor’s maximum distance to detect its standard sensing target, which is a 5x5x1 mm piece of iron, is 1.5 mm. This so-called sensing distance differs from one sensing target to another, based on their material, size, etc. You could find out the sensing distance in Contrinex proximity sensors with a correction factor, mentioned in their datasheet.
This sensor also features 0.03 mm repeat accuracy.
Control output
The DW-AS-623-M5 features PNP Normally Open control output. PNP stands for Positive-Negative-Positive transistors.
Temperature
The ambient temperature range that the DW-AS-623-M5 proximity sensor works properly in is -25 … 70°C.
Industries/applications:
- Tool selection automated production lines
- Robotic position-sensing
- Control of micro-mechanisms
