Datasensing AE6/AP-3FAN Sensors

The Datasensing AE6/AP-3FAN Sensors are high-performance inductive sensors designed for precision and reliability in various industrial applications. Featuring a compact M8 shielded design, these sensors offer a nominal sensing distance of 2mm and an operating distance of 0 to 1.62mm, making them ideal for close-range detection tasks. The sensors are equipped with a PNP output type and a normally open (NO) output function, ensuring efficient signal processing with a switching frequency of up to 5kHz. Constructed with a durable nickel-plated brass housing and an active head made of PBT, these sensors are built to withstand harsh environments, offering IP67 mechanical protection against dust and water ingress. The sensors are also equipped with advanced protection features, including short-circuit, reverse polarity, impulsive overvoltage, and inductive load protection, ensuring long-lasting performance and reliability. The AE6/AP-3FAN Sensors are designed for easy installation with an M8 plug connection and come with two M8x1 nuts for secure mounting. They operate within a voltage range of 10 to 30Vdc, with a no-load supply current of ? 10mA and a load current of ? 200mA. The sensors also feature a yellow LED indicator for output state visibility and have a time delay before availability of ? 50ms. With approvals such as CE and UR, and compliance with EMC compatibility standards IEC 60947-5-2, these sensors are suitable for use in hazardous areas classified as II 3G Ex nA IIC T5 Gc and II 3D Ex tc IIIB T90°C Dc. The AE6/AP-3FAN Sensors are engineered to deliver consistent performance with a repeat accuracy of < 5% and a thermal drift of Sr < 10%, making them a reliable choice for demanding industrial applications.
