RS PRO Threaded Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensor, M12 x 1 PNP 30V 4 mm 30 V dc 200mA

SICK Proximity Sensor, 4mm Maximum Detection, M12x1 Thread Size - 1113884

This proximity sensor is an inductive cylindrical device designed to detect metallic objects in industrial control and automation environments. It provides non-contact switching via a PNP output and is suited to panel and machine installations where a flush-mounted M12 connector style sensor is required.

Features & Benefits

• 4mm detection range delivers precise object sensing for tight tolerances
  2kHz switching frequency supports Rapid cycle usage
  PNP output and NO function enable straightforward sourcing integration
  IP67 enclosure rating allows use in wet and dusty locations
  10 to 30 V DC supply range accommodates common control voltages
  200mA switching current handles moderate load direct switching

**Applications**

• Suitable for presence detection on automated assembly lines
  Ideal for end-of-arm sensing in pick-and-place equipment
  Used with conveyor systems for part counting and flow control
  Can be used for metal proximity detection in machine tools
  Suitable for safety interlocks and gating where flush mounting is required

What connection Interface does it use for wiring?

It uses a male M12, 4-pin connector for electrical connection and straightforward cable mating.

How resilient is it to electrical faults?

The device includes short-circuit, reverse-polarity and power-up Pulse protection to reduce failure risk under incorrect wiring or transient events.

What environmental temperature range can it operate within?

It functions reliably between −25°C to +75°C for typical industrial ambient conditions.

What materials are used in the housing and sensing face?

The barrel is nickel-plated brass and the sensing face is a plastic compound (PA66), providing mechanical strength and a non-metallic detection face.
