Sensing Precision for Industrial Applications​

The NBN4 - 12GM50 - E1 - V1 from Pepperl + Fuchs is an inductive sensor designed for accurate detection in industrial settings. With a rated operating distance of 4 mm, it can precisely identify metallic objects. In a metalworking factory, it can detect the presence of steel parts on a production line. The assured operating distance spans from 0 to 3.24 mm. Different metals have varying reduction factors; for example, aluminum has a factor of 0.47, copper 0.43, 304 stainless steel 0.85, and brass 0.55. This enables it to adapt to diverse metal materials in industrial processes.​

Robust Operating Capabilities​

This sensor is engineered to function across a wide range of conditions. It has an operating voltage range of 5 - 36 V, making it suitable for different electrical systems in industrial automation. Whether in a low - voltage control system or a high - voltage power supply, it operates stably. The switching frequency reaches up to 2650 Hz, ensuring rapid response times. In high - speed manufacturing, where quick detection is crucial, it can keep up. It can endure ambient temperatures from - 40 °C to +85 °C, making it suitable for both cold storage and hot industrial processing areas.​

Durable Build and Safety Features​

The NBN4 - 12GM50 - E1 - V1 features a durable construction. Its housing is made of brass with a white bronze coating, providing excellent corrosion resistance, which is essential in harsh industrial environments with moisture or chemical exposure. The sensing face is made of PBT, colored green. It has a high protection degree of IP68, allowing it to be submerged in water without damage. Additionally, it comes with reverse polarity protection and short - circuit protection (pulsing), safeguarding the sensor from electrical malfunctions. The voltage drop is ≤ 1 V, and the operating current ranges from 0 - 200 mA, ensuring efficient and safe operation.
