    Rotate the face on these sensors five different directions for easy installation and positioning—they work with both AC and DC inputs. Unlike traditional limit switches that have actuators, these noncontact sensors adjust for front, top, bottom, left, or right facing objects. They have inductive sensors to detect objects even if they’re covered by water, oil, dirt, or a surface finish, making them good for conveyor systems and bin filing operations in refineries, mills, and other challenging environments. Maximum sensing distance is based on the object's material; the distance listed is for mild steel.
    They are UL and C-UL listed, as well as CE marked, to meet American, Canadian, and European Union safety standards. Some are also CSA certified. IP-rated, they all seal out dust and debris.
    IP65 Enclosure Rating—IP65-rated sensors protect against low-pressure washdowns, such as water from a garden hose.
    IP67 Enclosure Rating—IP67-rated sensors can be temporarily submerged.
    Flush Mount—Flush sensors, also called embeddable and shielded sensors, are more accurate than projecting switches at close range. They also won’t interfere with each other’s signals when installed close together. The face mounts evenly with any material, including metal.
    Projecting Mount—Projecting sensors, also known as non-embeddable and unshielded sensors, sense objects farther away than flush sensors. To work properly, the area around the face must be metal free.
    Plug In—All have 3-pole connectors to easily connect and disconnect. Sensors with a plug connect to cables with a socket (sold separately). To view wiring diagrams, select a part number and click Product Detail.
