Panasonic GX-F8A Proximity Sensor
The Panasonic GX-F8A Proximity Sensor (UGXF8A) offers reliable detection with a maximum operation distance of 2.5 mm and a stable sensing range of 0 to 2.1 mm, suitable for standard objects like 1 mm thick iron sheets measuring 15 × 15 mm. It maintains hysteresis of 20% or less and repeatability of 0.04 mm or less along both the sensing and perpendicular axes, ensuring consistent performance.
Operating within a supply voltage range of 12 to 24 V DC and consuming 15 mA or less, this sensor features an NPN open-collector transistor output with a maximum sink current of 100 mA and an applied voltage not exceeding 30 V DC.
The Panasonic GX-F8A Inductive Proximity Sensor boasts robust protection ratings of IP68 and IP68g. It is engineered to endure harsh industrial environments, offering vibration resistance up to 20 G. The sensor also provides shock resistance up to 10,000 m/s². Additionally, it complies with CE marking directives for quality assurance. It features a versatile cable extension option for enhanced flexibility. This allows for a total extension of up to 100 m when using suitable cable types.
