Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi EI1805PPOSS Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi EI1805PPOSS is a robust and reliable M18 inductive proximity sensor designed for non-contact detection of metallic objects in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the established Carlo Gavazzi EI18 series, it combines a stainless steel short-body housing with a three-wire PNP normally open output for dependable integration with PLCs, controllers and industrial automation equipment.
This sensor provides a rated operating distance of 5 mm and is designed for flush mounting in metal. Its shielded M18 threaded construction enables compact installation within machinery and equipment, while the non-contact sensing principle helps eliminate the mechanical wear associated with conventional limit switches.
With a 10–40 V DC supply, maximum output current of 200 mA and switching frequency of up to 500 Hz, the EI1805PPOSS is well suited to fast and reliable position, presence and movement detection. Its factory-fitted 2 m cable, stainless steel construction and IP67 protection rating provide dependable operation in demanding industrial environments.

Reliable Metal Detection for Industrial Automation
Inductive proximity sensors such as the Carlo Gavazzi EI1805PPOSS detect metallic targets without requiring physical contact. An electromagnetic sensing field responds when a suitable metal object enters the detection zone, allowing machinery to monitor component position, presence and movement while avoiding the mechanical wear associated with contact-operated switches.
The EI1805PPOSS is designed for industrial DC automation systems requiring reliable PNP switching from a compact sensor. Its stainless steel M18 housing, 5 mm sensing distance, flush mounting capability and 500 Hz switching frequency make it suitable for machine building, production equipment and material handling applications.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery position detection.
- Metal component presence sensing.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Automated assembly equipment.
- Machine tools and manufacturing systems.
- Component counting and positioning applications.
- PLC-controlled industrial automation systems.
