NEW / FEBRUARY 2026

Shielded type M1-40.72.U0 proximity inductive sensor for alternating current with cylindrical metallic housing M40x55mm, with normally closed contact. The maximum distance of operation of the proximity sensor is 14mm. The sensor ends with a 2-wire PVC connecting cable with a length of 2m and has an LED indicator showing the output state of the inductive sensor.

FEATURES

The M40 shielded inductive proximity sensor is used in industrial systems, as automation equipment for switching at 2-wire alternating current electrical circuits. It is activated by approaching of metallic objects to him active area. The inductive proximity sensor is resistant to moisture and dust. It has a long service life thanks to the non-contact switching of the electrical circuit in which it is connected.
