Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi EI1805TBOSS Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi EI1805TBOSS is a robust M18 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, it combines a short-body stainless steel cylindrical housing with a two-wire SCR normally open output for dependable switching in AC industrial control applications.
The sensor provides a rated operating distance of 5 mm and is designed for flush mounting, allowing it to be installed directly within surrounding metal. Its inductive sensing principle detects metallic targets without physical contact, helping eliminate mechanical wear while providing repeatable presence, position and end-of-travel detection.
With a 20–250 V AC rated power supply, maximum output current of 500 mA and maximum switching frequency of 25 Hz, the EI1805TBOSS is designed for direct integration with compatible industrial AC control circuits. Its compact M18 stainless steel housing, 2 m integral cable and IP67 protection rating provide dependable operation in demanding machinery and production environments.
