EMAS SIQ18FP1PC2 EMAS INDUCTIVE SQU.SENSOR M18 PNP NO FLUSH

Why Choose the EMAS SIQ18FP1PC2 Square Inductive Sensor?

The EMAS SIQ18FP1PC2 is a compact 18 mm square inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic objects in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the EMAS SIQ Series square inductive sensor range, it combines a plastic housing, flush sensing configuration, PNP normally-open output and pre-wired cable connection for straightforward integration into industrial control systems.

The SIQ18FP1PC2 detects metallic targets without requiring physical contact, helping minimise mechanical wear while providing repeatable switching for automated processes. Its compact square form factor provides a practical alternative to cylindrical proximity sensors where machinery layout, mounting position or available installation space favours a rectangular sensor body.

With a nominal sensing distance of 5 mm, an operating voltage range of 10–30 V DC and a switching frequency of 800 Hz, the SIQ18FP1PC2 is well suited to position sensing, component detection, machine sequencing and material handling applications requiring a PNP normally-open switching signal.

Reliable Non-Contact Detection for Industrial Automation

Inductive proximity sensors detect conductive metallic targets by generating an electromagnetic field at the sensing face. When a suitable metal object enters the detection zone, the sensor changes its electrical output state without requiring physical contact, enabling repeatable position and presence detection while reducing mechanical wear.

The EMAS SIQ18FP1PC2 combines a compact square housing with a 5 mm flush sensing arrangement and PNP normally-open output. Its 800 Hz switching frequency provides responsive detection for automated machinery, while the 2 m pre-wired connection simplifies integration with compatible PLC inputs and industrial control equipment.
