Product catalog summary

Overview

This document provides detailed technical specifications and model information for a series of Metal Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensors operating at DC voltages of 10-30V, 10-55V, and 5-36V. These sensors are designed for industrial automation applications requiring reliable object detection without physical contact.

Technical Specifications

  • Operating Voltage: 5-36 VDC, 10-30 VDC, and 10-55 VDC variants available.
  • Current Consumption: No load current less than 10 mA; maximum load current up to 200 mA.
  • Leakage Current: Less than 0.01 mA.
  • Voltage Drop: Less than 1.5 V.
  • Switching Frequency: Up to 2 kHz.
  • Response Time: 0.1 ms ON / 0.1 ms OFF.
  • Switching Hysteresis: Less than 15% of sensing distance (Sr).
  • Repeat Accuracy: Better than 1.0% of sensing distance.
  • Temperature Range: -25°C to +70°C.
  • Temperature Drift: Less than 10% of sensing distance.
  • Protection Rating: IP67, ensuring dust-tight and water-resistant performance.
  • Short Circuit Protection: Included.
  • Overload Trip Point: 220 mA.
  • Housing Material: Stainless steel barrel with POM (Polyoxymethylene) active face.
  • Weight: Ranges approximately from 18 g to 40 g depending on model and connector type.

Mechanical and Connection Details

  • Diameter: 6.5 mm barrel diameter.
  • Active Face Thickness: 1 mm stainless steel.
  • Cable: Shielded or non-shielded 2 m cable (3x0.15 mm²) or M8/M12 connectors depending on model.
  • Dimensions: Lengths vary between approximately 30 mm to 70 mm depending on model.

Model Variants and Features

The sensors are available in multiple configurations based on:

  • Output type: PNP or NPN.
  • Switching mode: Normally Open (N.O.) or Normally Closed (N.C.).
  • Voltage range compatibility: 5-36 VDC, 10-30 VDC, or 10-55 VDC.
  • Connection type: Cable or connector (M8 or M12).
  • LED indicator: With or without LED for switching status indication.
  • Shielding: Shielded or non-shielded versions.

Each model is identified by a specific part number (e.g., ISN-S6.502N-A1VS2) which encodes these features.

Performance and Reliability

  • High repeatability with less than 1% deviation ensures consistent detection.
  • Short response times (0.1 ms) enable fast switching suitable for high-speed automation.
  • Robust IP67 protection allows use in harsh industrial environments.
  • Temperature drift and hysteresis are minimized to maintain accuracy over operating conditions.

Additional Notes

  • Wiring diagrams are referenced on pages 13 to 15 (not included here) for installation guidance.
  • The sensors include built-in short circuit protection and overload trip to enhance durability.
  • Material selection (stainless steel and POM) ensures mechanical strength and chemical resistance.

Summary

This series of metal barrel inductive proximity sensors offers versatile configurations for various industrial sensing needs, combining compact size, robust construction, and precise electrical characteristics. They are suitable for applications requiring reliable, fast, and accurate proximity detection under challenging environmental conditions.
