About this item

Proximity Sensor Switch Module is an inductive sensor designed to detect the presence of metallic objects within a 5mm range. Operating within a voltage range of 10–30 VDC, it consumes a maximum current of 5 mA, making it suitable for low-power applications. The sensor features a Normally Open (NO) NPN output, which means it remains open (no connection) until a metallic object is detected, at which point it closes the circuit to signal detection. This type of output is commonly used in industrial automation and robotics for object detection and position sensing. The module is housed in a durable ABS plastic casing and comes with a 1.5-meter cable, providing flexibility for various installation setups. It also includes a red LED indicator that lights up when the sensor is powered on, offering a visual indication of the sensor's status. With a response frequency of up to 500Hz and an IP67 protection rating, the SN04-N is designed to withstand harsh environments, including exposure to dust and water, ensuring reliable performance in industrial settings. This sensor is ideal for applications requiring precise metal detection, such as conveyor systems, automated machinery, and robotics.
