Description

Autonics inductive proximity sensor M12, NO - PRCM12-2AO

Shield (flush), Standard connector, 2 mm Sensing distance

 

The Autonics proximity sensor PRCM12-2AO features outstanding noise protection and stable sensing performance due to its specialized sensor IC developed by Autonics. This sensor comes in a round cylindrical shape, sensing distance of 2mm, sensing side diameter and housing size of m12 and Shield (flush) installation. The standard cylindrical inductive sensor can be used in diverse applications requiring non-contact detection of metallic objects.

As a quick report, this inductive proximity sensor provides:

  • 12 mm sensing side diameter
  • Normally Open control output
  • 2 mm sensing distance
  • Shield (flush) installation
  • Shorten the time of maintenance
  • Reverse surge protection
  • IP67 ingress protection structure according to IEC standards
  • Red LED status indicator
  • Alternative to micro switches and limit switches.

Body

This proximity sensor's case and nut parts are made of nickel-plated brass.

The PRCM12-2AO features IP67 ingress protection.

The red LED on its body acts as the process indicator.

Connection

The PRCM12-2AO features standard cable type connection. This cable covers the sensor's 2 wires.

Sensing specifications

This inductive sensor's sensing side diameter is 12 mm. The maximum distance that this sensor can detect its standard sensing target, which is an 12x12x1 mm piece of iron, is 2 mm. This so-called sensing distance differs from one sensing target to another, based on their material, size, etc.

Although almost no one talks about the setting distance of an inductive sensor, it is a big deal to know this concept. Every sensor can detect its standard sensing target in a specified range, no matter what changes occur in ambient temperature, voltage fluctuations, etc. This distance, which is called the setting distance, is from 0 to 1.4 mm for this Autonics PR Series proximity sensor.

Control output

The PRCM12-2AO features Normally Open control output.

Temperature

There are limitations in temperature and humidity in which PRCM12-2AO proximity sensor is used:

  • Storage temperature: -30 … 80°C
  • Storage humidity: 35 to 95%RH
  • Ambient temperature: -25 … 70°C
  • Ambient humidity: 35 to 95%RH

Environment resistance is rated at no freezing or condensation.

Industries / applications

  • Part detection on industrial conveyor systems
  • Automated production lines
