The Datasensing AE6/AN-1AAN Sensor is an advanced inductive sensor designed for precision and reliability in industrial environments. Featuring a compact M8 short shielded design, this sensor operates with a nominal sensing distance of 1.5mm and an operating range of 0 to 1.21mm, making it ideal for detecting standard targets of 8x8mm FE360. It offers a high correction factor for various materials, including copper (0.29), aluminium (0.38), brass (0.49), and stainless steel (0.78), ensuring versatile application across different surfaces.
Engineered for durability, the sensor is housed in nickel-plated brass with an active head made of PBT, providing robust protection against harsh conditions. It is equipped with a 2m PVC cable for easy connectivity and features a yellow LED indicator for output state visibility. The sensor supports a switching frequency of 5kHz and operates within a voltage range of 10 to 30Vdc, with a no-load supply current of ? 10mA and a load current of ? 200mA.
Safety and reliability are paramount, with built-in protections against short-circuits, reverse polarity, impulsive overvoltage, and inductive loads. The sensor is ATEX certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres (II 3G Ex nA IIC T5 Gc) and offers mechanical protection rated at IP67, ensuring it withstands dust and water ingress. It is also compliant with EMC standards (IEC 60947-5-2) and designed to endure shocks and vibrations as per IEC 60068-2-6 and IEC 60068-2-27 standards.
With a tightening torque of 3Nm and supplied with two M8x1 nuts, the Datasensing AE6/AN-1AAN Sensor is easy to install and maintain, making it a reliable choice for proximity sensing applications in demanding industrial settings.
