Product Description:

The EPX3158-0022 is a surface-mount proximity sensor. It comes with an object sensing distance of 8 mm. It features a normally open output and an operation frequency of 1 kHz, which enables quick response times in detection applications. Its package is constructed from nickel-plated brass that provides mechanical strength and corrosion protection.

The product uses less than 15 mA of current and is thus power-friendly and may be integrated as a component into small, power-constrained control systems. The circuit may sustain up to a 200-mA load current and may thereby be used directly to supply power for logic or indication circuits. Internal short-circuit protection prevents overloads or wrong connection of wires and therefore protects both the sensor and the connected system from damage. Reverse polarity protection is also built in, such that installation with incorrect reversal of polarity will not damage the device. An LED in the case gives clear visual indication of the sensor operation to aid quick set up and fault tracing. The EPX3158-0022 is also appropriate for industrial use where stable non-contact sensing is needed, i.e., position sensing, counting, or presence monitoring of parts. Its rugged outer casing and protective capabilities make it appropriate for use in environments where electrical and mechanical reliability is of highest priority. Easy installation through means of low space requirement enables it to be installed in space-restricted spaces. High switching frequency in addition to the reliability of functioning makes it easy to incorporate it into automated equipment.

Due to its heavy-duty construction, standard sensing distance, and safety features incorporated in the device, the EPX3158-0022 provides a reliable sensing solution that keeps downtime at an absolute minimum and can be used in the long term for applications in factory automation or machine-building systems.
