Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi EI1805PPCSS-1 Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi EI1805PPCSS-1 is a compact and robust M18 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 EI18 sensor range, it combines a short-body construction with flush mounting and an M12 plug connection for convenient integration into automated equipment.
The EI1805PPCSS-1 provides a rated operating distance of 5 mm and features a PNP normally closed (NC) output. Its inductive sensing principle enables metallic objects to be detected without physical contact, helping minimise mechanical wear while providing dependable switching for repetitive position and presence detection.
Operating from a 10–40 V DC supply, the sensor supports a maximum output current of 200 mA and a maximum switching frequency of 500 Hz. Its stainless-steel housing, IP67 protection and operating temperature range of -25 to +70 °C make it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
