Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi EI1202TBOSL Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi EI1202TBOSL is a robust and reliable M12 inductive proximity sensor designed for non-contact detection of metallic objects in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the established Carlo Gavazzi EI series, it combines a stainless steel long-body housing with a two-wire SCR normally open output for dependable switching in AC control applications.
This sensor provides a rated operating distance of 2 mm and is designed for flush mounting in metal. Its shielded M12 threaded construction enables compact installation within machinery, fixtures and production equipment, while non-contact sensing helps reduce mechanical wear compared with conventional limit switches.
With a 20–250 V AC rated operational supply, output current of up to 500 mA and switching frequency of 25 Hz, the EI1202TBOSL is well suited to industrial position, presence and movement detection. A factory-fitted 2 m cable, stainless steel housing and IP67 protection rating provide a practical solution for demanding industrial installations.
