E57 metal face sensors

Built sensor tough

E57 metal face sensors – Unlike standard sensors that have plastic faces, metal face inductive proximity sensors feature a tough, stainless steel face. Because of this, the sensors can withstand abrasion, impact of particulate debris, corrosion and chemical attack, providing reliable operation and longer life. In addition, common diameters, voltage styles and wiring connections make it easy to retrofit existing, damaged sensors.

E57 metal face sensors core features

  • Common 12-, 18- and 30-mm housing diameters allow for easy change out of existing, less robust sensors to increase machine uptime
  • The 20-mil stainless steel sensing face is thicker than competing units, providing a higher level of protection in extreme environments
  • These sensors offer wide operating temperature range –13 to 158 °F (–25 to 70 °C)
  • The robust design is ideal for extreme temperature or environments with high-pressure washdown
  • Stainless steel body
  • Operating voltage 10 – 30 Vdc
  • Short-circuit protection
  • Laser-engraved label
  • 360-degree LED indicator
