    About Proximity Sensors
    industrial info icon

    Compare sensing types, mounting styles, wiring options, and input and output requirements to choose the right proximity sensor for your application.

    DC Metallic-Object Proximity Sensors

    Also known as inductive proximity sensors, these detect metallic objects even if they’re obscured by water, oil, dirt, or a surface finish. Sensing distance is based on the target material. The distance listed is for mild steel. They’re often used with programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and produce PNP or NPN signal output. To determine the signal output of a sensor you are replacing, use Testers for Proximity and Photoelectric Sensors (not included).
    Also available: If you don’t see the sensor you need, please select 73635K999 and specify manufacturer and manufacturer part number.
    IP69K Enclosure Rating—IP69K rated sensors are protected from high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns.
    IP68 Enclosure Rating—IP67 and IP68 rated sensors are protected from temporary submersion.
    Flush Mount—Flush sensors, also known as embeddable or shielded sensors, can be mounted so that the sensor face is level with the surface of any material, including metal. They’re more accurate than projecting sensors at close range and can be mounted close together without causing interference.
