Datasensing AE6/AN-1A Sensors

The Datasensing AE6/AN-1A Sensors are designed for precision and reliability in industrial applications. These inductive sensors feature a compact M8 short shielded design with a NO/NPN output type, making them ideal for proximity detection tasks. The sensor is equipped with a 2-meter axial cable for flexible installation and connectivity. Constructed with a robust nickel-plated brass housing, the AE6/AN-1A ensures durability and resistance to harsh environments, boasting an IP67 protection rating. The sensor's LED status indicator is visible from 360°, providing clear operational feedback. It offers complete protection against electrical damages, including short-circuit, reverse polarity, and impulsive overvoltage protection. With a nominal sensing distance of 1.5mm and an operating distance of 0 to 1.21mm, this sensor is optimized for detecting standard targets of 8x8mm FE360. It features a high switching frequency of 5kHz and operates efficiently within a voltage range of 10 to 30Vdc. The sensor's thermal drift is maintained at less than 10%, ensuring consistent performance across varying temperatures from -25°C to +70°C. The AE6/AN-1A is designed for easy installation with its shielded mounting and comes with two M8x1 nuts for secure attachment. Its compact dimensions (M8 x 1 / L = 35.5mm) and lightweight design (45g) make it suitable for space-constrained applications. Additionally, ATEX models for category 3 environments are available upon request, expanding its versatility in hazardous locations. This sensor is compliant with CE and UR approvals and meets EMC compatibility standards (IEC 60947-5-2), ensuring reliable operation in industrial settings. Its mechanical protection against shocks and vibrations (Vibration IEC 60068-2-6 / Shock IEC 60068-2-27) further enhances its robustness, making the Datasensing AE6/AN-1A Sensors a dependable choice for your sensing needs.
