Orange 8mm NPN Inductive Proximity Sensor RM18 DC6~36V (Unshielded)

The Orange 8mm NPN Inductive Proximity Sensor RM18 detects metal objects using electromagnetic induction. When a metal object enters the sensor's magnetic field, it alters the field's properties, triggering a response from the sensor.

Inductive

• Avoid Wrong Polarity: Do not connect the sensor with reversed polarity as it has inverted connecting protection.,
• Prevent Short Circuits: Avoid short circuits by ensuring proper insulation and connections, as the sensor includes short-circuit protection.,
• Exclude Non Metal Objects: Do not use this sensor to detect non-metal objects as it is designed specifically for metal detection.

• Ensure Correct Voltage: Make sure the operating voltage is within the specified range of 6 to 36 VDC.,
• Check Output Type: Verify that the output type (NPN Normally Open Three-line) matches the requirements of the connected circuit.,
• Install Correctly: Install the sensor ensuring it is non-flush (unshielded) to allow the magnetic field to radiate properly.

• Temperature Range: -30 to 80°C,
• Ip Rating: IP67, ensuring dustproof, vibration proof, waterproof, and oil proof characteristics.

• Operating Voltage: 6 to 36 VDC,
• Max Output Current: 200 mA

• Red Wire: Connect to power supply (+),
• Black Wire: Connect to output, interfacing with the control system or load,
• Blue Wire: Connect to ground (-)
