Festo Proximity Sensor, T-Slot Type, Magnetic Hall Measuring Principle - SDBT-MSX-1L-NU-E-0.3-N-M8 For an automated system that keeps its eye on the ball, install this proximity sensor from Festo. It detects how close an object is and relays that data to your system so it can react accordingly. You get near-instant reactions, thanks to a quickfire 2ms switch on and off time. An IP68 rating means the unit is protected against dust and moisture, so stands up to use in challenging environments. You can expand the cable's reach in a snap if needed by adding a NEBU-series connecting cable (121-5575). Features & Benefits • Standard M8 connector plugs easily into your existing setup
• Reliable performance in demanding applications thanks to an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C
• Screw-locking connection prevents accidental loosening in vibrating conditions Applications • Robotics systems
• Processing facilities
• Industrial automation
• Manufacturing plants What's the magnetic Hall measuring principle? This unit contains a magnet, an electronic circuit and a Hall element, which is a kind of sensor. When an object with a magnetic field comes into range, it changes the Hall element's voltage. This change is how the sensor detects metallic items, even in polluted environments.
