Contactless inductive proximity sensors with nickel-copper housing | for detection of metal objects in automation control and monitoring systems

Inductive Non-Contact Sensors – reliable, precise, and durable automation components designed to detect metal objects without direct contact. Widely used in industrial automation, equipment control, transport systems, production lines, robotics, and domestic automation systems.

Made from a nickel–copper alloy, these sensors offer high resistance to environmental factors, mechanical strength, and electromagnetic stability, making them ideal for both industrial environments and engineering projects where reliability and accuracy are crucial.

Main Functions and Operating Principle
Inductive sensors operate based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. When a metal object (e.g., a steel or aluminum part) enters the sensor’s electromagnetic field, the field parameters change, and the sensor interprets this change as a signal. This signal is then used to activate control systems, relays, or PLCs.

Functions:

Non-contact detection of metal objects (iron, steel, aluminum, brass, etc.)

Accurate detection range – from a few millimeters to several centimeters (depending on model)

Visual LED indicator showing sensor activity

Protection against overvoltage and short circuits

Fast signal transmission suitable for dynamic systems

Applications:

Industrial automation: production lines, transport systems, conveyors, robots, CNC equipment

Engineering solutions: position detection, metal detection, feedback systems

For electricians: control cabinets, safety systems, signal control, automatic switches

Household use: automatic gates, doors, metal detection devices, workshop automation

Advantages:

Reliable non-contact operation – no mechanical wear ensures long service life

High resistance to moisture, dust, and vibration

Robust nickel–copper housing for mechanical durability and corrosion protection

Suitable for detecting various metals – from steel to aluminum

Fast response and high precision for dynamic systems

Disadvantages:

Cannot detect non-metallic objects (plastic, wood, glass, etc.)

Requires precise installation – excessive distance reduces sensitivity

Inductive non-contact sensors for metal detection – a reliable, safe, and long-lasting solution for automation control and monitoring systems. Thanks to their nickel–copper housing, high protection class, and precision, these sensors are ideal for engineers, electricians, and automation specialists, as well as for use in home automation projects.
