1. Sensing Features
The Pepperl + Fuchs NBN8 - 18GM40 - Z0 is an inductive sensor engineered for precise object detection. With a rated operating distance of 8 mm, it can accurately sense metallic objects within this range. The assured operating distance, typically from 0 to 6.48 mm, ensures reliable performance in industrial applications. Boasting a switching frequency of up to 1150 Hz, it responds rapidly to target presence or absence. The sensor has a 3 - wire configuration, which offers compatibility with various industrial control systems. A distinct yellow LED switching state indicator provides clear visual feedback on its operational status, making monitoring easy.
2. Physical Build and Durability
This sensor comes in a robust nickel - plated brass housing with an 18 - mm diameter. The sensing face, made of PBT material, contributes to its reliable detection capabilities. It has an IP67 protection rating, meaning it can resist dust and withstand temporary submersion in water, suitable for harsh industrial environments. The non - flush installation design, along with nuts for mounting and a tightening torque of 0 - 30 Nm, allows for flexible placement. Operating within an ambient temperature range of - 40 °C to +85 °C, it maintains consistent performance across different conditions.
3. Electrical Specifications
Operating within a voltage range of 10 - 30 V DC, the NBN8 - 18GM40 - Z0 is well - suited for standard industrial power supplies. It features reverse polarity protection, safeguarding against incorrect voltage connections that could damage the sensor. The short - circuit protection, implemented as pulsing, ensures its safety during electrical faults. The voltage drop is ≤ 3 V, and the operating current ranges from 0 - 200 mA, with a no - load supply current of ≤ 15 mA. This energy - efficient design makes it ideal for long - term continuous operation in industrial automation setups.
