Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi EI1808PPCSS Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi EI1808PPCSS is a robust M18 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial automation and machine-control applications. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi EI18 family, it combines a short-body stainless steel housing with a three-wire PNP normally closed output and integral cable connection.
Using inductive sensing technology, the EI1808PPCSS detects metallic objects without requiring physical contact. Its 8 mm rated operating distance and non-flush sensing configuration provide an extended detection range for an M18 sensor, making it suitable for machine positioning, component presence detection, travel monitoring and automated process sequencing.
The EI1808PPCSS operates from a 10–40 V DC supply, supports a maximum output current of 200 mA and provides a maximum switching frequency of 400 Hz. Its 2 m integral cable, stainless steel construction, -25 to +70 °C operating range and IP67 protection make it a dependable solution for industrial machinery and factory automation.

Reliable Extended-Range Inductive Detection
Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic objects by generating an electromagnetic field at the sensing face and monitoring changes caused when a conductive target enters the detection zone. Because no physical contact with the target is required, inductive sensing provides a durable alternative to mechanically actuated switches in repetitive industrial applications.
The Carlo Gavazzi EI1808PPCSS combines this proven technology with an 8 mm sensing distance and non-flush M18 construction, providing greater detection range than shorter-range flush M18 variants. Its PNP normally closed output and 400 Hz switching capability make it suitable for responsive position and presence feedback in automated machinery.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine position detection.
- Metal component presence sensing.
- End-position and travel monitoring.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Automated assembly machinery.
- Packaging and production equipment.
- Factory automation and process sequencing.
- OEM machinery and industrial control systems.
