Proximity Sensor detects tiny objects 2 in. away.

Extended range 12mm ultrasonic SUPERPROX(R) Model SM300 Series detects all materials at distances from as close as 0.25 in. to as far as 2.00 in. from sensor face. At such distances, sensor is safely out of harm's way. It detects objects as small as 0.098 in. dia rod or 0.039 in. wide flat bar. Operating on 12 to 24 Vdc, sensor is equipped with both sinking (NPN) and sourcing (PNP) outputs.
