The Autonics PRCM30-10DN Cylindrical Inductive Proximity Sensor provides accurate non-contact metal detection using a 10mm sensing distance in a rugged M30 flush-type housing. Built to detect 30Γ30Γ1mm iron targets, it operates on a DC 3-wire 12β24V supply and delivers output via an NPN Normally Open configuration. With a maximum current consumption of 10mA and residual voltage below 1.5V, the sensor maintains strong signal stability even under continuous use. Its response frequency of 400Hz ensures quick reaction time in mid-speed production environments. The sensor body is constructed with nickel-plated brass, while the sensing surface uses polybutylene terephthalate for enhanced durability. It is sealed to IP67 standards, resisting dust, water, and industrial contaminants. The standard connector cable uses oil-resistant PVC insulation, and the unit performs efficiently within ambient temperatures of -25Β°C to 70Β°C and humidity levels up to 95% RH. At just 146g, it combines heavy-duty reliability with manageable size for panel integration.
The PRCM30-10DN is frequently installed in automated conveyor systems, metal part sensing units, and rotating equipment feedback loops. Maintenance technicians prefer its plug-and-play standard connector for fast replacements during downtime. Junior engineers can wire and test it easily during machine commissioning, while experienced professionals value its durability, flush installation, and accuracy across variable load conditions. Whether itβs used in packaging machines, steel processing lines, or assembly stations, this sensor delivers consistent detection performance and long-term stability in tough Indian factory environments.
