Rectangular Proximity Sensor 30 mm, PNP NO – PSN30-10DP

Autonics proximity sensor 30mm, PNP NO PSN30-10DP

Rectangular, Cable type connection, 10 mm Sensing distance

The Autonics proximity sensor PSN30-10DP features outstanding noise protection and stable sensing performance due to its specialized sensor IC developed by Autonics. This inductive proximity sensor comes in a Rectangular shape, sensing distance of 10mm, sensing side diameter and frame size 30mm and rectangular installation. The standard Autonics PS Series rectangular 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 frame size

• PNP Normally Open control output

• 10 mm sensing distance

• Rectangular installation

• Shorten the time of maintenance with the body

• Improved noise resistance

• Long life cycle and high 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 Autonics proximity sensor’s case and nut parts are made of Heat-resistant ABS. The metal detector inductive proximity sensor PSN30-10DP features IP67 ingress protection.

The red LED on its body acts as the process indicator.

Connection

The Autonics inductive proximity sensor’s PSN30-10DP features standard cable type connection. This cable covers the sensor’s 3 wires. It is 5 mm in diameter and 2 meters in length.

Sensing specifications

This inductive sensor’s frame size is 30mm. The maximum distance that this sensor can detect its standard sensing target, which is a 30×30×1 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 PSN30-10DP features PNP Normally Open control output. PNP stands for Positive- Negative-Positive transistors.
