Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi EI3010PPOSS-6M Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi EI3010PPOSS-6M is a robust M30 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic objects in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi EI series, this short-body sensor combines a durable stainless-steel housing with a PNP normally open output for straightforward integration into DC control systems.
With a 10 mm rated sensing distance, the EI3010PPOSS-6M provides repeatable detection of conductive metal targets without physical contact. Its flush-mount sensing arrangement allows the sensor to be installed within surrounding metal, while solid-state switching helps minimise mechanical wear in high-cycle automation applications.
The EI3010PPOSS-6M operates from a 10–40 V DC supply and provides a PNP normally open output with up to 200 mA load capability. This variant is supplied with a 6 m cable, providing additional wiring reach for installation on larger machines, conveyors and automated production equipment.
