Pepperl+Fuchs NBB5-18GM20-E2 Inductive Proximity Sensor | 5mm Range, 10-30V DC, IP67, M12 Connector for Compact Automation

Precise Sensing for Industrial Metal Detection

The Pepperl+Fuchs NBB5 - 18GM20 - E2 is a high - quality inductive proximity sensor designed for accurate non - contact metal detection in industrial automation. With a rated operating distance of 5 mm (flush mounting), it provides reliable positioning. Its 3 - wire DC PNP output (normally open) operates within a 10 - 30 V DC range, integrating smoothly with control systems. Boasting a switching frequency of up to 1000 Hz and a hysteresis of around 5%, it ensures stable signals even in high - speed operations, such as those in conveyor systems or robotic assembly lines.

Durable Build for Tough Environments

Engineered to endure harsh industrial conditions, the NBB5 - 18GM20 - E2 features a robust housing. It has an IP67 protection rating, making it dust - tight and resistant to water. The sensor can operate within a temperature range of - 25°C to + 70°C (ambient) and - 40°C to + 85°C (storage). Its compact M18 x 20 mm cylindrical design simplifies installation in various industrial machines, even in space - constrained areas.

Versatile and Compliant for Global Applications

Designed for worldwide industrial use, the NBB5 - 18GM20 - E2 complies with international standards like EN IEC 60947 - 5 - 2. It has specific metal reduction factors that enable effective detection of different metal types, including aluminum, copper, and stainless steel. The sensor comes with certifications such as cULus listing and RoHS compliance. Its functional safety parameters, including a certain MTTFd (Mean Time To Failure) value, ensure long - term reliability in non - safety - integrated industrial setups.
