Datasensing AK6/AP-1A Sensors

The Datasensing AK6/AP-1A Sensors are high-performance inductive sensors designed for precision and reliability. Featuring a compact M18 short shielded design, these sensors offer a nominal sensing distance of 5mm and an operating distance of 0 to 4.05mm, making them ideal for a variety of applications. 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 2.5kHz. Constructed with a durable nickel-plated brass housing and an active head made of PBT, the AK6/AP-1A sensors are built to withstand harsh environments, with an operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C and a degree of protection rated at IP67. The sensors are equipped with a 2m PVC cable for easy connectivity and feature LED indicators for output state monitoring. With a wide range of models available, including standard, long distance, and ATEX category 3 models upon request, these sensors offer versatility and adaptability. They also provide complementary output options (NO+NC) and are compatible with various materials, with correction factors for copper, aluminum, brass, and stainless steel. The AK6/AP-1A sensors are designed with safety and reliability in mind, featuring short-circuit protection, reverse polarity protection, impulsive overvoltage protection, and protection against inductive loads. They are CE and UR approved, ensuring compliance with international standards, and are tested for shocks and vibrations according to IEC standards. Supplied with two M18x1 nuts for secure mounting, these sensors are an excellent choice for applications requiring precise proximity detection and robust performance.
