The I27001 is designed for long-distance detection of metallic objects where conventional short-range proximity sensors may not provide sufficient sensing distance. Its adjustable 30–120 mm detection range makes it suitable for large metal components, machine parts and moving metallic objects.
The integrated potentiometer allows the sensing range to be adjusted according to the application. With a factory setting of 120 mm, the sensor provides a long detection distance while retaining the flexibility to reduce the sensing range when required.
The sensor's PNP normally-open output provides a switching signal to compatible PLCs, controllers and automation systems. The 250 mA permanent current rating supports connection to suitable industrial control circuits within the specified electrical limits.
The I27001 features a large Ø164 mm cylindrical housing with a 63 mm length and is designed for non-flush mounting. This configuration is particularly suited to long-range area detection and applications involving large metallic targets.
The housing is manufactured from PBT, with an aluminium bottom cover. The sensor is supplied with a 2 m PVC cable containing 3 × 0.5 mm² conductors, providing a pre-wired connection for industrial automation installations.
A yellow LED switching-status indicator provides visual feedback of the sensor's switching state, supporting installation, commissioning and maintenance activities.
The I27001 provides IP65 protection and operates within an ambient temperature range of -20 °C to +70 °C, making it suitable for a broad range of industrial environments.
The I27001 is suitable for Industrial Automation UAE applications requiring long-range detection of metallic objects.
