E2A-M30KS15-M1-C3

Proximity sensors allow for non-contact detection of an object’s presence and/or distance from an active sensing device. The E2A-M30KS15-M1-C3 is a type of proximity sensor. It has a wide range of applications due to its unique features and working principle.

Application Field

The E2A-M30KS15-M1-C3 proximity sensor is commonly used in industrial operations such as machines, robots, and automated manufacturing lines that require precise accurate sensing. Its small size and low profile make it an ideal choice for tight spaces, making it a great solution for confined applications such as those found in food processing, pharmaceutical, and medical applications. It is also widely used in automated vehicles and surveillance applications, due to its high accuracy in detecting objects in close proximity. Additionally, its M12 threaded connector allows for easy and secure installation, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring quick set up and low maintenance costs.

Working Principle

The E2A-M30KS15-M1-C3 proximity sensor utilizes a magnetic reed switch to detect the presence or absence of objects within its sensing field. This reed switch works by encasing a ferrous metal (usually iron or steel) in a sealed glass enclosure. When an external magnetic field is present, the metal is attracted to the applied field and causes a physical contact inside the glass enclosure, thus closing the switch and completing a circuit. In the absence of a magnetic field, the switch is open and no circuit is completed.

The E2A-M30KS15-M1-C3 uses a powerful rare earth neodymium magnet inside its sensing cavity to generate an external magnetic field. When an object enters the sensing field, it disrupts the magnet’s field and causes the reed switch to close. The built-in circuitry then detects the switch closure and outputs a signal to indicate the presence of an object. Using this basic working principle, the E2A-M30KS15-M1-C3 is able to detect objects in close proximity with high accuracy.

The E2A-M30KS15-M1-C3 also offers excellent reliability and repeatability, making it highly suitable for repeatable and continuous operations. Additionally, it is resistant to environmental influences, such as electrostatic and radio frequency interference. This makes the E2A-M30KS15-M1-C3 a great choice for applications in harsh industrial environments. Overall, the E2A-M30KS15-M1-C3 is a reliable and accurate proximity sensor that is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
