Inductive sensor SP-05N, NO/NPN 10-30VDC

The PS SP-05N series inductive proximity sensor is a non-contact sensor for detecting metal objects in industrial and automation applications. The board design with mounting holes allows for a firm attachment to the structure of the machine or device. The sensor is designed for DC power supply and uses an NPN output in the NO version.
