Datasensing AE1/AP-3A4W Sensors

The Datasensing AE1/AP-3A4W Sensors are high-performance inductive sensors designed for precision and reliability. Featuring an M8 LD shielded NO/PNP configuration, these sensors come with a 2-meter axial housing made from durable AISI303 stainless steel. With a nominal sensing distance of 2mm and an operating range of 0 to 1.62mm, they are ideal for detecting standard targets of 8x8mm FE360. The sensors offer excellent correction factors for various materials, including copper (0.35), aluminium (0.43), brass (0.52), and stainless steel (0.78). Engineered for stability, they exhibit a thermal drift of Sr of less than 10% and a repeat accuracy of less than 5% at 24V and 23°C ±5°C. The hysteresis ranges from 1 to 20%, ensuring consistent performance. Designed for proximity functions, the sensors have a PNP output type with a normally open (NO) output function and a switching frequency of 5kHz. They operate efficiently within a voltage range of 10 to 30Vdc, with a no-load supply current of ? 10mA and a load current of ? 200mA. The sensors are equipped with a yellow LED indicator for output state, and they feature robust protection mechanisms, including short-circuit, reverse polarity, impulsive overvoltage, and protection against inductive loads. The shielded mounting and AISI303 stainless steel housing ensure durability, while the PBT active head material and IP67 mechanical protection provide resilience in harsh environments. With a tightening torque of 3Nm and dimensions of M8 x 1 / L = 45.5mm, these sensors are easy to install and come with two M8x1 nuts for secure mounting. They are CE and UR approved, with EMC compatibility per IEC 60947-5-2 standards, and are designed to withstand shocks and vibrations as per IEC 60068-2-6 and IEC 60068-2-27. Operating efficiently in temperatures ranging from -25°C to +70°C, the Datasensing AE1/AP-3A4W Sensors are the perfect choice for demanding industrial applications.
