Baumer Electric Introduces Compact Inductive Proximity Sensors with Ultra-Miniature M5 Connectors



Southington, Conn. -- February 14, 2003 ...Baumer Electric introduces two compact 4 and 5 mm inductive proximity sensors designed for use with the new ultra-miniature M5 (5mm diameter) connectors. This sensor and connector combination delivers superior performance in extremely tight mounting applications.

CE and UL-approved, the 4 and 5 mm Ultra-Miniature Inductive sensors feature a supply voltage range of 10-30 VDC, a sensing distance of 1.0 mm, load current of 100 mA, and a bright and visible two-point output-state LED indicator. The new inductive proximity switches incorporate the latest ASIC and flip chip technology, and are equipped with fully integrated short-circuit and reverse polarity protection.

Both compact inductive sensors are encased in a rugged stainless steel housing that is just 24 mm long. The housing fits Baumer Electric's vibration-resistant, IP 67, M5 x 0.5 screw-on connector designed with a cap nut measuring just 6 mm in diameter. The innovative ultra-miniature connector comes in both straight and 90° versions.
