Datasensing AK1/AP-4AAN Sensors

The Datasensing AK1/AP-4AAN Sensors are high-performance inductive sensors designed for demanding industrial environments. Featuring an M18 unshielded design, these sensors offer a nominal sensing distance of 12mm and an operating range of 0 to 9.7mm. They are equipped with a PNP output type and a normally open (NO) output function, ensuring reliable proximity detection with a switching frequency of 300Hz. Constructed with a robust nickel-plated brass housing and a PBT active head, these sensors are built to withstand harsh conditions, offering mechanical protection rated at IP67. They are suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, with approvals including II 3G Ex nA IIC T6 Gc and II 3D Ex tc IIIB T85°C Dc. The sensors are also compliant with EMC standard IEC 60947-5-2 and are resistant to shocks and vibrations as per IEC 60068-2-6 and IEC 60068-2-27 standards. The AK1/AP-4AAN Sensors feature a 2m PVC cable connection and include two M18x1 nuts for easy installation. They operate efficiently within a voltage range of 10 to 30Vdc, with a no-load supply current of ? 20mA and a load current of ? 400mA. Additional protective features include short-circuit, reverse polarity, impulsive overvoltage, and protection against inductive loads. With a thermal drift of Sr less than 10% and a repeat accuracy of less than 5% at 24V and 23°C ±5°C, these sensors ensure precise and consistent performance. The yellow LED indicator provides a clear output state, and the sensors are ready for operation with a time delay of ? 50ms. Ideal for applications requiring reliable and accurate sensing in challenging environments, the Datasensing AK1/AP-4AAN Sensors are a versatile and durable choice for industrial automation.
