Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi EI1808TBCSS Inductive Proximity Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi EI1808TBCSS is a robust M18 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic objects in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi EI18 series, it combines a stainless steel short-body housing with a two-wire SCR normally closed output for dependable switching in industrial AC control applications.

This sensor provides a rated operating distance of 8 mm, delivering extended detection capability from its compact M18 cylindrical format. Its inductive sensing principle detects metallic targets without physical contact, reducing mechanical wear compared with conventional limit switches and providing dependable position and presence sensing in repetitive industrial applications.

With a 20–250 V AC supply, maximum output current of 500 mA and maximum switching frequency of 25 Hz, the EI1808TBCSS is well suited to industrial AC sensing and machine control. Its factory-fitted 2 m cable, stainless steel construction and IP67 protection rating provide a durable sensing solution for demanding industrial environments.

Reliable Metal Detection for Industrial Automation

Inductive proximity sensors such as the Carlo Gavazzi EI1808TBCSS 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 EI1808TBCSS is designed for industrial AC automation systems requiring reliable normally closed switching and an extended sensing distance. Its stainless steel M18 housing, 8 mm sensing range, two-wire SCR output and integrated cable make it suitable for machine building, production equipment, conveyors and material handling systems.

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.
• Industrial AC control and automation systems.
