Workhorse 12 To 24V DC Inductive Proximity Sensor 3 Wire NPN PNP With Normally Closed Output For Iron And Metal Detector, Micro Proximity Limit Switch For Automation And Machinery

Inductive Proximity Sensor, 12-24V DC, NC Output
✔️ 12-24V DC operation, 15 mA max, open-collector NC/PNP/NPN output by model

This compact inductive proximity sensor detects magnetic metals such as iron, iron alloys, and nickel, and is commonly used on automation lines, conveyors, and machinery to sense metal presence.

✅ Detectable object: magnetic metal (iron, iron alloy, nickel); non-magnetic metal has shorter detection distance
✅ Power supply: 12-24V DC ±10%
✅ Current consumption: ≤15 mA
✅ Output: open-collector NC; NPN/PNP output by model; load <100 mA
✅ Ambient temperature: -25°C to +70°C; 35-85% RH
✅ Hysteresis: <10% of working distance

💡 What is a 12-24V inductive proximity sensor with normally closed output used for metal detection in automation? A handy device for metal-detection tasks that lets you safely switch control circuits without contact. - NPN/PNP open-collector NC output lets you wire to standard automation controllers - 12-24V DC supply, ~15 mA current draw - Detects magnetic metals like iron and nickel; non-magnetic metals show shorter ranges - Handy for wiring into conveyor or machine control on metal-detection tasks
