The Pepperl + Fuchs NBN40-U1-A2 is a high-performance inductive proximity switch sensor designed to offer reliable and precise detection of metallic objects without any physical contact. This sensor is engineered to operate within a 10 to 30 VDC range and is equipped with a 4-pin connector, ensuring easy integration into various industrial applications.

With a nominal operating distance of 40 mm and a non-flush installation design, this sensor provides a robust sensing solution in environments where direct contact with the target is not possible or desirable. The device features a PNP output and offers both normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) configurations, enhancing its versatility for different control logic requirements.

The sensor is built to withstand harsh industrial conditions, boasting an IP68/IP69K protection rating, which ensures it is dust-tight and can resist high-pressure water jets. Its durable housing is made from a combination of PA and metal with an epoxy powder coating, and the sensing face is constructed from PA, contributing to its longevity and resilience.

This inductive proximity switch sensor is also equipped with LED indicators for 360° visibility of the operating status, which aids in quick diagnostics and monitoring. The device's technical specifications include a switching frequency of up to 180 Hz, a typical hysteresis of 5%, and short-circuit protection with pulsing, ensuring reliable operation and protection against electrical disturbances.

The Pepperl + Fuchs NBN40-U1-A2 is compliant with relevant EN and IEC standards, reflecting its adherence to quality and safety benchmarks. It is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including machinery positioning, presence detection, and automation tasks where precision and reliability are paramount.
