The M18 inductive proximity switch series is a universal metal detection sensor designed for industrial automation applications. It adopts an M18 \u00d7 1 threaded cylindrical structure with an overall length of 55mm\/58mm, balancing compact size and reliable strength. It is suitable for installation on various equipment racks, fixtures, and conveyor line sides. The product shell is made of nickel plated brass metal, which has high mechanical strength, impact resistance, oil resistance, and is not easily deformed or corroded during long-term operation. It can operate stably in harsh environments such as stamping machines, automatic lines, and assembly stations.<\/p>\n
This series covers multiple detection distances and installation methods. The sensing distances of the flush installation models are 5mm, 8mm, and 12mm, respectively. They can be directly embedded in metal surfaces for installation, with strong anti-interference ability, suitable for use in workstations with compact space and dense surrounding metal; The induction distance of non flush installation models can reach 8mm, 16mm, and 20mm, providing greater detection margin while maintaining good repeatability accuracy. It is suitable for situations that require slightly longer triggering distances and certain retreat requirements for installation positions. All products are made with standard 100 \u00d7 100mm iron plates as reference, and can maintain good response to small workpieces in practical applications.<\/p>\n
The M18 series adopts a wide voltage supply of 10-30VDC DC, with output modes covering NPN\/PNP, normally open\/normally closed combinations. Users can flexibly choose the corresponding model according to the input type of the control system. For example:<\/p>\n
*M1805N1P\/M1805N2P: flush type 5mm, NPN normally open\/normally closed;
\n*M1808N1P\/M1808N2P: flush type 8mm, NPN normally open\/normally closed;
\n*M1812N1P\/M1812N2P: Flat type 12mm, NPN normally open\/normally closed;
\n*M1808N1T\/M1808N2T: Non flush 8mm, NPN normally open\/closed;
\n*M1816N1T\/M1816N2T: Non flush 16mm, NPN normally open\/closed;
\n*M1820N1T\/M1820N2T: Non flush 20mm, NPN normally open\/closed;
\nThe corresponding PNP models M1805P1P\/P2P, M1808P1P\/P2P, M1812P1P\/P2P, as well as M1808P1T\/P2T, M1816P1T\/P2T, M1820P1T\/P2T, are suitable for common PNP input systems such as PLCs and relay modules. Clear model codes distinguish installation methods, sensing distances, and output forms, facilitating quick selection and inventory management.<\/p>\n
In terms of electrical performance, the maximum switching frequency can reach 1kHz~500kHz, and the response time is generally within 0.5ms~1ms, which can easily cope with high-speed counting, sorting, and positioning control applications. The product has built-in short circuit protection and reverse connection protection. When the output terminal accidentally short circuits or the positive and negative poles of the power supply are reversed, the sensor can automatically cut off the output to avoid damaging the sensor and subsequent equipment; Leakage current<0.01mA, maximum load current 150mA, can directly drive small and medium-sized relay coils or optocoupler input modules, with strong system adaptability.<\/p>\n
All models are equipped with clear LED status indicator lights, allowing for intuitive viewing of power on status and switch actions on site, reducing debugging and maintenance workload. The standard outlet length is 2m (customizable extension), using flexible cables for easy wiring between the distribution box and on-site sensors. With a protection level of up to IP67, coupled with a metal casing and reliable sealing technology, it can work for a long time in industrial environments such as humidity, dust, oil mist, etc; The working environment temperature range is -25 \u2103 to+70 \u2103, suitable for the vast majority of workshop and equipment environments.<\/p>\n
Overall, the M18 inductive proximity switch series integrates multiple detection distances, flush\/non flush installations, and multiple NPN\/PNP normally open and normally closed outputs. It combines high-frequency response, high repeatability, and complete electrical protection, making it an ideal choice for metal workpiece detection, travel limit, position counting, speed detection, and other working conditions. It is suitable for automated production lines, packaging machinery, logistics transportation, machine tool equipment, and renovation and upgrading projects, providing reliable guarantees for stable equipment operation and production efficiency improvement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
