Description
Contrinex proximity sensor M8, NPN NC DW-AS-612-M8
Non-embeddable (non-flush), M12 4-pin, 2.5 mm sensing distance
The Contrinex proximity sensor DW-AS-623-M5 features outstanding noise protection and stable sensing performance due to its specialized sensor IC developed by Contrinex. This sensor comes in a round cylindrical shape, sensing distance of 2.5mm, sensing side diameter and housing size of M8, and Non-shield (non-flush) installation. The standard cylindrical inductive sensor can be used in diverse applications requiring non-contact detection of metallic objects.
As a quick report, this inductive proximity sensor provides:
- 8 mm sensing side diameter
- NPN Normally Close control output
- 2.5 mm sensing distance
- Non-embeddable (non-flush) installation
- Long life cycle and simple operations
- protections against short-circuits, induced overvoltages, and power supply reversal built-in
- IP67 ingress protection structure according to IEC standards
- Red LED status indicator
Body
This Contrinex proximity sensor's case and nut parts are made of Stainless-steel V2A and its sensing side is made of PBTP (Crastin).
The DW-AS-612-M8 features IP67 ingress protection.
The LED on its body acts as the process indicator.
Connection
The Contrinex proximity sensor DW-AS-612-M8 features a 4-pin M12 electrical connection.
Sensing specifications
This inductive sensor's sensing side diameter is 8 mm. This sensor's maximum distance to detect its standard sensing target, which is a 8x8x1 mm piece of iron, is 2.5 mm. This so-called sensing distance differs from one sensing target to another, based on their material, size, etc. You could find out the sensing distance in Contrinex proximity sensors with a correction factor, mentioned in their datasheet.
This M8 NPN NC proximity switch also features 0.12 mm repeat accuracy.
Control output
The DW-AS-612-M8 features NPN Normally Close control output. NPN stands for Negative-Positive-Negative transistors.
Temperature
The ambient temperature range that the DW-AS-612-M8 M8 NPN NC proximity switch works properly in is -25 … 70°C.
Industries/applications:
- tool selection automated production lines
- robotic position-sensing
- control of micro-mechanisms
Series Information
BASIC Proximity sensors
Contrinex BASIC inductive sensors have a worldwide and well-deserved reputation for uncompromising accuracy and exceptional reliability. With best-in-class sensing distances between 1.5 mm and 40 mm, the Contrinex BASIC range offers fit-and-forget operation, delivering world-class performance and a highly attractive total cost of ownership. Available in sizes from M8 to M30 and C44, with optional Ø 6.5 plain and 8 mm square-section models, BASIC range inductive sensors are ideal for general position-sensing and presence-sensing applications in almost any industry. Embeddable or non-embeddable variants are available, with either hard-wired, hermetically sealed connecting cables or integral metal connectors. BASIC range devices, whether from the conventional Classics, or the advanced Extra Distance or Full Inox technology families, all utilize Contrinex application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) that ensure highly repeatable results at operating temperatures between -25°C and +70°C. An IO-Link interface is also available for communication in PNP NO versions.
BASIC Sensors Main features
- Excellent price performance ratio
- Deviation in operating distance ≤2%
- Outstanding temperature compensation
- IO-Link
