Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi EI1204TBCSL Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi EI1204TBCSL is a robust M12 stainless-steel inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi EI12 sensor range, this long-body sensor combines durable construction with a 2-wire AC switching design for dependable position and presence detection.
The EI1204TBCSL provides a nominal sensing distance of 4 mm and features an SCR normally closed (NC) output. Its inductive sensing principle eliminates physical contact with the target, helping reduce mechanical wear while supporting repetitive switching applications in manufacturing and automated equipment.
With a 20–250 V AC supply range, maximum output current of 500 mA, switching frequency up to 25 Hz and a factory-fitted 2 m cable, the EI1204TBCSL is designed for straightforward integration into AC control circuits. Its stainless-steel threaded housing and IP67 protection provide durability for demanding industrial environments.
