AC Metallic-Object Proximity Switches

Also known as inductive proximity switches, these remotely sense metallic objects even if they’re obscured by water, oil, dirt, or a surface finish. Sensing distance is based on the type of material being sensed. The distance listed is for mild steel. All are rated IP67 for protection from dust and temporary submersion.
Projecting switches, also known as non-embeddable or unshielded switches, must be mounted with the area around the sensor face free of metal. They have a longer sensing distance than flush switches with the same diameter.
Switches with a plug connect to cables with a socket (sold separately), allowing you to quickly connect and disconnect the switch.
Also available: If you don’t see the switch you need, please select 6693T999 and specify manufacturer and manufacturer part number.
