AutomationDirect AE1-AP-1A is an 8 mm diameter tubular inductive proximity sensor with a 45 mm long nickel-plated brass housing, designed for DC operation from 10 to 30 V and a 1.5 mm nominal sensing distance. It offers a 3-wire PNP, normally open (NO) output and arrives with a 2 m axial cable for straightforward wiring. The unit is IP67 rated and supports switching frequencies up to 3 kHz, making it suitable for fast sensing on conveyors and other metal-detection tasks in demanding industrial environments. With its compact M8 form factor, it's well-suited for space-limited installations in automation and manufacturing equipment.
