Turck NI5 Series Inductive Barrel-Style Proximity Sensor, M12 x 1, 5 mm Detection, NAMUR Output, 8.2 V dc, IP67

Sidestep potential issues in your automated process with this proximity sensor from Turck. This inductive device uses an electromagnetic field to spot ferrous and non-ferrous metals in a 5mm detection range. Its detective work is contactless, which helps to prevent damage to delicate items in your setup. The component's chrome-plated brass barrel holds up in damp or humid conditions. It's shock-resistant, so gets on with business even when things get shaky. Installation is a doddle – just screw the module into a compatible bracket and plug in the connector.

• IP67 rating indicates it's dust-tight and waterproof for up to 30 minutes in 1m of water
• Only 34mm long to save space in small setups
• M12 thread is widely compatible with standard brackets

• Research and development facilities
• Aviation industry
• Medical imaging systems
• Automated industrial processes

Yes, it's a shielded device, so it shrugs off the electromagnetic and radio-frequency emissions of other equipment to ensure accurate performance.

It runs on an 8.2V DC supply, so it works a treat with your low-voltage operations.
