Cylindrical M18 capacitive proximity sensor with PTFE coated housing and 2 m PVC cable

Sick

Sick CM18-08BNP-TW0 Capacitive Proximity Sensor NPN

SKU CH-EESX-9C7JP

Capacitive proximity sensor with M18 thread, 3 mm to 8 mm sensing range, NPN complementary output, IP67 enclosure, 10 V to 36 V DC supply, and 2 m PVC cable

  • Flush M18 mount simplifies installation
  • 3–8 mm sensing range detects varied materials
  • NPN complementary output suits standard PLC inputs
  • IP67 rating withstands dust and water jets
  • 25 °C to +60 °C operation handles harsh environments

Sensing Range and Output

The Sick CM18-08BNP-TW0 is a capacitive proximity sensor with an NPN complementary switching output. It detects objects at a sensing range of 3 mm to 8 mm with a safe sensing range of 5.76 mm. The cylindrical M18 x 1 threaded housing allows flush installation in industrial environments.

Sustained Operation Characteristics

Under continuous load the sensor operates on a 10 V DC to 36 V DC supply with a maximum continuous current of 200 mA. A switching frequency of ±30 Hz and a time delay before availability of 100 ms support steady cyclic detection. The IP67 enclosure rating and an ambient operating temperature of –25 °C to +60 °C maintain performance in harsh conditions.

Decisive Specification

The NPN complementary output function determines compatibility with your control circuit sinking requirements. Sensitivity is adjustable via a 270° potentiometer for precise application tuning. The 2 m PVC cable with 0.34 mm² conductors provides the electrical connection.
