This inductive proximity sensor is used for non-contact detection of metallic objects at a distance of up to 8mm.
Note: The detecting distance will vary depending on the shape, thickness and type of material being detected.
This sensor requires a 10-30V power supply and outputs 5V when the sensor is triggered. The easiest way to use this sensor is to connect it to the Versatile Input Phidget, a device that can interface a wide variety of sensor types.
To connect the sensor, connect the wires as follows:
