Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi EI1808PPOPS Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi EI1808PPOPS is a compact M18 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic objects in industrial automation and machine control applications. Part of the established Carlo Gavazzi EI18 inductive sensor series, it combines a thermoplastic threaded housing, short-body construction and pre-wired cable connection for straightforward integration into industrial equipment.
This sensor provides an 8 mm rated operating distance together with a PNP normally open (NO) switching output. Its non-flush sensing configuration provides extended detection range compared with shorter-range M18 variants, making it suitable for presence, position and movement detection throughout automated machinery.
With a 10–40 V DC supply range, maximum output current of 200 mA, switching frequency up to 400 Hz and IP67 protection, the EI1808PPOPS provides fast and dependable sensing for conveyors, assembly equipment, packaging machinery and general factory automation.
