Datasensing AC1/AN-1A Sensors

The Datasensing AC1/AN-1A Sensors are designed for precision and reliability in industrial applications. Featuring a smooth stainless steel housing with a compact Ø4 mm diameter, these sensors are equipped with a 360° visible yellow output LED for easy status monitoring. Choose between models with a 2 m PVC cable or an M8 connector, both offering IP67 protection for robust performance in challenging environments. With a nominal sensing distance of 0.8mm and an operating range of 0 to 0.65mm, these sensors are ideal for detecting standard targets of 4x4mm FE360. They offer excellent correction factors for various materials, including copper, aluminum, brass, and stainless steel, ensuring versatile application. The sensors maintain high accuracy with a thermal drift of Sr under 10% and repeat accuracy under 5% at 24V and 23°C ±5°C. Designed for proximity functions, the AC1/AN-1A sensors feature an NPN output type with a normally open (NO) output function, supporting a switching frequency of up to 5kHz. They operate efficiently within a voltage range of 10 to 30Vdc, with minimal no-load supply current and load current requirements. The sensors are equipped with essential protections, including short-circuit, reverse polarity, impulsive overvoltage, and protection against inductive loads. Constructed with AISI303 stainless steel and PBT active head material, these sensors are built to withstand operating temperatures from -25°C to +70°C. They are CE and cULus approved, ensuring compliance with international standards, and offer EMC compatibility per IEC 60947-5-2. Withstanding shocks and vibrations as per IEC standards, the AC1/AN-1A sensors are a reliable choice for demanding industrial environments.
