Pepperl+Fuchs NBN8‑18GM40‑Z0 Inductive Proximity Sensor

Product Overview

This Pepperl+Fuchs NBN8‑18GM40‑Z0 is a 2‑wire DC inductive proximity sensor. It detects metallic objects without physical contact, converts metal target presence into digital switching signal for PLC and industrial control systems. Widely used for object detection, position feedback, parts counting and equipment status monitoring in automated machinery.

Product Advantages 

• 8 mm non‑flush sensing distance, stable detection for metal workpieces
• 2‑wire DC wiring design, simple installation, fewer wiring workload
• Built‑in reverse‑polarity & short‑circuit protection, anti‑misconnection capability
• IP67 housing, resistant to dust, splash and workshop environment interference
• Yellow LED status indicator, on‑site visual working‑state check
• Wide operating voltage 5‑60 VDC, compatible with most industrial DC power supply
• Nickel‑plated brass shell, excellent mechanical wear‑resistance
• High switching frequency up to 500 Hz, fit for high‑speed motion detection
