Introduction:
- Lorentzzi M8 proximity sensor here is an outer diameter 8 mm inductive proximity sensor, we can use it in many fields, but the main usage is to use it to detect metallic objects, such as iron, stainless steel, aluminum, copper and so on.
- As this kind of sensor belongs to a cylindrical sensor, therefore, the “M8” here means its housing diameter is M8 thread size, that is a 8 mm inductive proximity sensor.
- There are two kinds of this sensor, one is flush type, the other is non-flush type, the flush one detecting distance is 1.0 mm, while the non-flush one is a little further than it, it is 1.5 mm. Why so? Please read this article for an explanation.
- This M8 proximity sensor output can be PNP+NO, PNP+NC, PNP+NO and NC, NPN+NO, NPN+NC, NPN+NO and NC. Different outputs wiring methods is different, you can see the below wiring diagrams for them:
- Lorentzzi can produce not only the M8 inductive proximity switch, but also the M8 capacitive sensor. The capacitive sensor can detect any material objects, no matter if it is metals or non-metals.
- More information of this sensor, please have a look at the below specifications table:
