Autonics PRD08-4DN Long-Distance Inductive Sensor is built with an M8 diameter sensing face and provides a stable 4mm sensing distance for detecting 12Γ12Γ1mm iron targets. It uses a DC 3-wire 12β24V power supply and features an NPN Normally Open control output for seamless integration with automation systems. The sensor delivers fast signal processing with an 800Hz response frequency, ensuring accurate and repeatable detection even in high-speed operations. A low current consumption of just 10mA and a maximum residual voltage of 2V contribute to its electrical stability. Its rugged non-flush mounting structure is housed in nickel-plated brass and protected to IP67 standards, making it highly resistant to dust, oil, and water. The polybutylene terephthalate sensing face and standard PVC cable provide long-term reliability, while the sensor maintains sensing accuracy within Β±10% even under fluctuating temperatures from -25Β°C to 70Β°C.
This model is ideal for applications such as object presence sensing on compact conveyors, metallic component verification in jig fixtures, and rotary indexing system feedback. Engineers prefer the PRD08-4DN for its consistent performance in low-clearance areas where flush-type mounting is not suitable. Maintenance teams value its quick installation, stable repeatability, and resistance to ambient noise. For high-speed assembly lines, automated inspection machines, and electronic part feeders, this sensor ensures dependable detection without frequent recalibration or downtime.
