Automation Direct PD1-AN-3A is a 5 mm diameter tubular inductive proximity sensor with a 25 mm stainless-steel housing, designed to detect metal targets without contact at a sensing distance of 1.5 mm. It provides an NPN normally open output, IP67-rated protection, and a pigtail lead for straightforward wiring. With a switching frequency of 3 kHz, this compact sensor is ideal for tight spaces in automation setups such as conveyors and other metal-detection tasks where robust, reliable metal sensing is required.
