The Datasensing AE1/AP-3A86AN Inductive Sensor is designed for precision and reliability in industrial applications. This M8 shielded sensor features a NO/PNP output type and comes with a 5-meter PVC cable for flexible installation. It operates within a voltage range of 10 to 30Vdc and supports a nominal sensing distance of 2mm, with an operating distance of 0 to 1.62mm. The sensor is constructed with a nickel-plated brass housing and an active head made of PBT, ensuring durability and resistance to harsh environments.
Engineered for safety and efficiency, the sensor is equipped with short-circuit, reverse polarity, and impulsive overvoltage protection. It also includes a yellow LED indicator for output state visibility. The device is capable of handling a load current of up to 200mA, with a switching frequency of 5kHz, making it suitable for high-speed operations. Its IP67 mechanical protection rating ensures it is dust-tight and water-resistant, while its compliance with IEC 60947-5-2 standards guarantees electromagnetic compatibility.
The AE1/AP-3A86AN sensor is approved for use in hazardous areas, with certifications including II 3G Ex nA IIC T5 Gc and II 3D Ex tc IIIB T90°C Dc. It is designed to withstand operating temperatures ranging from -25°C to +70°C and is resistant to shocks and vibrations as per IEC 60068-2-6 and IEC 60068-2-27 standards. Supplied with two M8x1 nuts for secure mounting, this sensor is an ideal choice for applications requiring precise proximity detection and robust performance.
