Extended-Range Metal Detection for Industrial Automation
Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic targets by generating an electromagnetic field at the sensing face and monitoring changes caused when conductive material enters that field. This contactless operating principle eliminates mechanical contact with the target, helping to minimise wear while providing repeatable position and presence detection in automated machinery.
The Carlo Gavazzi IA18ASN14DCM1 combines an extended 14 mm sensing distance with a two-wire DC normally closed output and compact M18 construction. Its nickel-plated brass housing, electrical protection, detachable M12 connection and IP67 enclosure rating make it a practical sensing solution for industrial automation, machine building and production equipment.
