Overview
Omron 3 Wire Proximity Sensor uses high-frequency oscillation. They resist heat, chemicals, and water better than Rectangular Sensors. They are available in both shielded and unshielded models.
Proximity Sensors are available in models using high-frequency oscillation to detect ferrous and non-ferrous metal objects and in capacitive models to detect non-metal objects. Models are available with environment resistance, heat resistance, resistance to chemicals, and resistance to water.

*1. The response frequency is an average value.
Measurement conditions are as follows: standard sensing object, a distance of twice the standard sensing object, and a set distance of half the sensing distance.
*2. When using an M8 Model at an ambient temperature between 70 and 85°C, supply 10 to 30 VDC to the Sensor and make sure that the Sensor has a control output of 100 mA maximum.
