GX-8MU Cylinder type proximity sensor
| Max. operation distance | 2 mm0.079 inplus or minus 10 % (Note) The maximum operation distance stands for the maximum distance for which the sensor can detect the standard sensing object. |
| Stable sensing range | 0 to 1.6 mm0 to 0.063 in (Note) The maximum operation distance stands for the maximum distance for which the sensor can detect the standard sensing object. The stable sensing range stands for the sensing range for which the sensor can stably detect the standard sensing object even if there is an ambient temperature drift and/or supply voltage fluctuation. |
| Standard sensing object | Iron sheet 8 × 8 × t 1 mm0.315 × 0.315 × t 0.039 in |
| Hysteresis | 20 % or less of operation distance (with standard sensing object) |
| Supply voltage | 12 to 24 V DC +10 /-15 % Ripple P-P 10 % or less |
| Current consumption | 0.8 mA or less (Note) It is the leakage current when the output is in the OFF state. |
| Output | Non-contact DC 2-wire type – Load current: 3 to 70 mA(Note 1) – Residual voltage: 3 V or less(Note 2) (Note 1) The maximum load current varies depending on the ambient temperature. (Note 2) When the cable is extended, the residual voltage becomes larger. |
