Inductive proximity switches of the Series AE6
Series AE6
Inductive proximity switches are non-contact operating position switches reacting to the presence of a metallic object
in the monitored area. The product range of inductive proximity switches reaches from simple proximity switches
up to high-temperature sensors for applications at ambient temperatures up to +110 °C. High switching frequencies
up to 5000 Hz and the different construction types M8x1, M12x1 and M18x1, which can be installed either shielded
or unshielded, provide ideal conditions for the use in automation technology.
