Enhanced Sensing Reach
The NBN8 - 18GM50 - E2 - V1 by Pepperl + Fuchs is an inductive sensor with an impressive sensing range. It has a rated operating distance of 8 mm, allowing it to detect metallic objects from a relatively far distance compared to some models. In an automotive assembly plant, it can sense the presence of large metal components approaching on a conveyor belt. The assured operating distance varies from 0 to 6.48 mm. Similar to other models, it has specific reduction factors for different metals. For example, aluminum has a factor of 0.47, copper 0.43, 304 stainless steel 0.85, and brass 0.55, which is useful when dealing with diverse metal materials in industrial settings.
Broad - Spectrum Operating Conditions
This sensor is designed to function under a wide range of conditions. It operates within a voltage range of 5 - 36 V, making it adaptable to different electrical systems in industrial automation. Whether in a low - voltage control network or a high - voltage power supply infrastructure, it can maintain stable operation. The switching frequency reaches up to 1300 Hz, which, although lower than some other models, is still sufficient for many industrial applications. It can withstand ambient temperatures from - 40 °C to +85 °C. This wide temperature tolerance enables it to be used in both cold storage facilities and hot industrial processing areas without performance degradation.
Sturdy and Reliable Build
The NBN8 - 18GM50 - E2 - V1 features a robust construction. Its housing is made of brass with a white bronze coating, providing excellent resistance against corrosion. This is highly beneficial in harsh industrial environments where moisture or chemical exposure is common. The sensing face is crafted from PBT, which is green in color. With an IP68 protection degree, it can be submerged in water without getting damaged. It also comes with reverse polarity protection and short - circuit protection (pulsing), ensuring its safety and long - term reliability. The voltage drop is ≤ 1 V, and the operating current ranges from 0 - 200 mA, which contributes to its energy - efficient operation in industrial automation setups.
