Description

 

Autonics Cylindrical Inductive Long-Distance Sensor M12, PNP NO - PRD12-4DP

Shield (Flush), Long distance, 4 mm Sensing distance

 

The Autonics proximity sensor PRD12-4DP 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 4mm, 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 proximity sensor provides:

  • 12 mm sensing side diameter
  • PNP Normally Open control output
  • 4 mm sensing distance
  • Shield (Flush) installation
  • Improved noise resistance
  • Long life cycle and reliable
  • Reverse polarity, surge, and over-current 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 PRD12-4DP features IP67 ingress protection.

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

Connection

The Autonics sensor PRD12-4DP features standard cable type connection. This cable covers the sensor's 3 wires. It is 4 mm in diameter and 2 meters in length, and is made of PVC.

Sensing specifications

This inductive sensor's sensing side diameter is 12 mm. The maximum distance that this Autonic proximity sensor can detect its standard sensing target, which is a 12x12x1 mm piece of iron, is 4 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 2.8 mm for this proximity sensor.

Control output

The PRD12-4DP features PNP Normally Open control output. PNP stands for Positive-Negative-Positive transistors.

Temperature

There are limitations in temperature and humidity in which PRD12-4DP 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

  • Detect trays in rubber press machines of shoe manufacturing lines
  • Detect the presence of carriers on conveyor belts during manufacturing of electrical parts
  • Automation system example of an elevator, escalator, and parking system
  • Detect and count the quantity of bottles during beverage packaging process
  • Detect the plates on the turntables and control the set/fixed position of the turntables
  • Limit switches to check the precise location of parts in automatic drilling machines

Check this product applications:

  1. Inductive sensors check and observe presence and status of devices of hydraulic presses
  2. Blind detection is used in manufactured-to-measure fixtures that examine threaded inserts in molded automotive components
