Engineered for precision and endurance, the Autonics PRDLT18-14DO features a 14mm sensing range optimized for standard 40Γ40Γ1mm iron targets. It runs on a DC 2-wire 12β24VDC system and supports a Normally Open control output, making it compatible with most PLC input configurations. The sensor's leakage current is limited to just 0.6mA, helping reduce false signals in noise-prone environments. With a residual voltage of 3.5V and a response frequency of 200Hz, it ensures timely and accurate detection of fast-moving metal parts. Built with a non-shielded (non-flush) M18 brass body and finished in nickel plating, this long-body sensor is resistant to oil, dust, and humidity. The IP67 protection rating and operating range of -25Β°C to 70Β°C make it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.
The PRDLT18-14DO Long-Distance Inductive Sensor is widely used in elevator mechanisms, forging units, heavy-duty material handling systems, packaging automation, and robotics. It is particularly effective in scenarios where a larger sensing gap is required, such as detecting thick metal sheets, high-clearance conveyor parts, or heavy machine arms where flush-mount sensors may fall short. Its longer detection range helps reduce installation sensitivity and allows flexible mounting positions, minimizing alignment issues. This makes it a go-to choice for maintenance teams working with aging machinery or for OEMs designing machines with wider detection zones.
With over four decades of sensing innovation, Autonics continues to deliver durable automation components trusted by engineers worldwide. The PRDLT18-14DO stands as a reliable solution for applications that demand extended detection without sacrificing response speed or stability.
