Pepperl+Fuchs NBN8-18GM50-E2-V1 | 8 mm Non-Flush Inductive

Pepperl+Fuchs NBN8-18GM50-E2-V1 | 8 mm PNP Inductive Proximity Sensor with M12 Connector

Overview

The Pepperl+Fuchs NBN8-18GM50-E2-V1 is a robust inductive proximity sensor designed for non-flush installation, offering an 8 mm sensing distance. Built with a nickel-plated brass housing, this sensor is perfect for detecting metallic targets in demanding industrial environments. It delivers a PNP normally open (NO) switching output, ideal for integration into 24 V DC control systems.

With a wide operating voltage, extended temperature range (-40 to +85 °C), and IP65/IP66/IP67/IP68 protection, the NBN8-18GM50-E2-V1 offers long-lasting performance in harsh conditions.
