Frequently Asked Questions
Will this work with an NPN (sinking) input?
No. This is a PNP (sourcing) sensor and is not directly compatible with NPN logic without an interface/converter.
What materials will it detect?
Metal targets only (ferrous or non-ferrous). It will not detect plastic, wood, or glass.
Can it be mounted flush in metal?
Yes. It is an embeddable (shielded) sensor intended for flush mounting.
What cable/connector do I need?
An M8 3-pin female cordset that matches your system wiring and input requirements.
