Pepperl+Fuchs NBN15-30GM50-E2 Inductive Proximity Sensor | 15mm Range, 30V DC, M12 | IP67

1. Sensing Performance​

The Pepperl + Fuchs NBN15 - 30GM50 - E2 is an inductive sensor with remarkable sensing capabilities. It has a rated operating distance of 15 mm, allowing it to accurately detect metallic objects within this range. The assured operating distance typically spans from 0 to 12.15 mm, ensuring reliable operation. With a switching frequency of up to 1150 Hz, it can quickly respond to the presence or absence of targets. The PNP output in a 3 - wire configuration makes it highly compatible with a wide variety of industrial control systems. A yellow LED switching state indicator provides clear visual feedback on the sensor's operational status, facilitating easy monitoring.​

2. Physical Structure​

This sensor features a durable nickel - plated brass housing with a 30 - mm diameter. The sensing face, made of PBT material, contributes to its reliable detection performance. It has an IP67 protection rating, which means it can resist dust and withstand temporary submersion in water, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. The non - flush installation design, along with nuts for mounting and a tightening torque of 0 - 30 Nm, provides flexibility in placement. Additionally, it can operate within an ambient temperature range of - 40 °C to +85 °C, ensuring consistent performance across different conditions.​

3. Electrical Characteristics​

Operating within a voltage range of 5 - 36 V DC, the NBN15 - 30GM50 - E2 is well - adapted to standard industrial power supplies. It comes equipped with reverse polarity protection, safeguarding against incorrect voltage connections that could potentially damage the sensor. The short - circuit protection, implemented as pulsing, ensures the sensor's safety during electrical faults. The voltage drop is ≤ 1 V, and the operating current ranges from 0 - 200 mA, while the no - load supply current is ≤ 10 mA. This energy - efficient design makes it an ideal choice for long - term continuous operation in industrial automation setups.
