Sensore di prossimità induttivo Datalogic IS-12-G1-03 M12 a filo PNP

The Datalogic IS-12-G1-03 is an inductive proximity sensor with a compact M12 threaded housing and flush mounting. Designed for contactless detection of metal targets, this PNP-output sensor provides reliable switching in confined spaces and is suitable for a wide range of industrial automation applications. The device is intended for tasks such as conveyor sensing, machine part detection and positioning where a small, robust sensor with standard M12 connection is required.

Advantages

The sensor offers compact dimensions and flush mounting that minimize protrusion and allow installation in tight mechanical assemblies. Its inductive detection principle ensures durable, wear-free operation on metallic targets and stable switching performance in environments with dust or non-conductive contaminants. The PNP output and standard M12 threaded housing enable straightforward electrical integration with common industrial controllers and cabling systems.

Suitable for

• Conveyor belt object detection and counting
• Position sensing of machine parts and fixtures
• Presence detection for feeding and handling equipment
• Integration into compact automation modules and distributed I/O

Key specifications

• Sensing type: inductive (metal detection)
• Housing thread: M12
• Mounting style: flush
• Output type: PNP
• Electrical connection: M12 connector compatible
• Suitable for confined mounting and tight installation spaces

How to use

Mount the sensor using the M12 threaded housing and secure it so the sensing face is aligned with the target path. Ensure the sensor is installed flush where required by the application to achieve the specified sensing distance. Connect the device to the control system using the M12-compatible cable or connector, observing correct wiring for PNP output and power supply polarity. Adjust the mounting position and distance so metallic targets reliably enter the detection zone; perform functional tests under normal operating conditions to verify switching behavior.

Recommendations

Place the sensor to avoid direct mechanical impact on the sensing face and keep a safe distance from strong electromagnetic interference sources. For best long-term performance, secure the M12 connector to prevent loosening and follow the machine manufacturer’s grounding and cable routing practices.
