Inductive sensor TL-W5MC2

TL-W5MC2 is an inductive proximity sensor for non-contact detection of metal objects in automation, signaling and control circuits. The design with three-wire connection and PNP output in NC connection is suitable for applications where switching is required when the presence of a metal target changes without mechanical contact.

Why choose this product?

• A clearly defined model with a verified output type and power range.
• Compact dimensions and mounting holes allow for simple mechanical fastening.
• The contactless sensing principle reduces mechanical wear at the detection point.
• The PNP NC output design is suitable for specific control logic in DC applications.

Installation and operating instructions

• When installing, observe the orientation of the active sensing surface relative to the detected metal object.
• Connect the sensor only to circuits within the specified DC power supply range.
• Before commissioning, verify the correct wiring according to the function of the power supply, output and common pole.
• A solid mechanical mount reduces the risk of false detection due to vibration or sensor movement.

Safety notice

• Incorrect wiring may cause damage to the sensor or the connected control circuit.
• Perform installation and connection with the power disconnected.
• Do not exceed the permitted supply voltage or maximum load current.
• Installation into industrial or control systems should be carried out by a person with appropriate electrical qualifications.
