Allen-Bradley 942647 Inductive Proximity Sensor

Allen-Bradley 942647 Inductive Proximity Sensor is an industrial non-contact metal detector used to sense the presence of metallic parts within its sensing field. In automation and control systems, this type of sensor provides fast, contact-free position sensing and end-of-travel or part-detection signals for conveyors, machine tools, robotics, and automated assembly lines. The 942647 designation identifies this particular sensor within Allen-Bradley's lineup of inductive sensing devices, which are chosen for durability and repeatable switching in typical manufacturing environments. Inductive proximity sensors operate by emitting an electromagnetic field and generating a response when a metal target enters the field, enabling reliable switching without wear from physical contact. For the exact electrical characteristics, mounting options, and sensing range of this model, refer to official Allen-Bradley documentation or the catalog listing labeled SENSOR 942647.
