Proximity switch EL-LM18-4005A AC

A proximity sensor is a type of sensor used to detect the presence or absence of an object or target within a certain range without any physical contact. Proximity sensors are widely used in various industries and applications for automation, control, and safety purposes. They rely on different technologies to sense the presence of objects, such as electromagnetic fields, light, sound, or capacitive effects. Proximity sensors have a specific range within which they can detect objects. This range can vary from a few millimeters to several meters, depending on the type of sensor. Inductive Proximity Sensors detects metallic objects by generating electromagnetic fields. Proximity sensors offer advantages such as fast response times, non-contact operation, and reliability in various conditions. Sensors have several types of screw threads M8, M12, M18 and M22
