30 mm Inductive Sensor

This Eaton inductive proximity sensor detects metal targets at 15 mm range using a 30 mm stainless-steel barrel. It operates on 6 to 48 V DC and switches at 240 Hz with a programmable NPN or PNP output. The 4-pin micro DC connector simplifies wiring in automation panels.

Check voltage and mounting

Verify that your control system supplies 6 to 48 V DC and can read a programmable NPN or PNP signal. Confirm the 30 mm barrel fits the mounting bracket and that the 4-pin micro DC connector matches your cable harness. The shielded design allows flush installation in metal.

Replaces worn 30 mm sensors

This unit directly replaces failed or obsolete 30 mm inductive sensors with the same 15 mm sensing distance and 6 to 48 V supply. The IP67 and IP69K ratings plus NEMA 4, 4X, 6, 6P, 12 and 13 make it suited for wash-down and high-pressure environments where lesser seals fail.

Questions about this item

Does the sensor ship with the 4-pin micro-DC connector and mounting hardware, or must I buy a cable separately?

The unit includes the built-in 4-pin micro-DC connector; a mating cable and any mounting brackets are sold separately.

Should I choose the programmable output version or a fixed NPN/PNP model for a 24 V DC line?

The programmable output lets you set NPN or PNP on the same 6-48 V DC device, so one sensor covers both logic types.

Will the 15 mm sensing range hold up on a stainless-steel target at the 240 Hz switching speed?

Yes, the 15 mm maximum detecting distance is rated for shielded mounting on mild steel at 240 Hz operating frequency.
