Built with a robust M30 cylindrical body, the Autonics PR30-15DP provides a 15mm sensing distance for iron targets measuring 45Γ45Γ1mm. Operating on a DC 3-wire system with 12β24VDC input, it features a PNP Normally Open output and consumes a maximum current of just 10mA. This sensor ensures fast and reliable detection with a 200Hz response frequency and maintains a low residual voltage of 1.5V. The durable housingβcrafted from nickel-plated brass with oil-resistant PVC cablesβmeets IP67 standards for water and dust protection. It operates efficiently in temperatures ranging from β25Β°C to 70Β°C and humidity levels up to 95%, making it highly reliable in demanding factory conditions.
The PR30-15DP is widely used for object presence detection on automated conveyor systems, machinery tooling setups, and robotic assemblies. Its ability to provide precise, non-contact detection enhances safety and productivity across diverse industrial segments. Maintenance engineers rely on this model for monitoring part positioning in metalworking, packaging, and automotive processes. Its quick response time and stable output performance reduce cycle delays and signal noiseβensuring smooth integration with PLCs and controllers. Whether used for end-stop sensing or object verification, this sensor delivers consistent performance even in oil-exposed or high-humidity workspaces.
