PEPPERL+FUCHS Inductive Sensor NRN40-L3K-A2-C-V1 (306534-0108)

In automated assembly lines and material handling systems, the PEPPERL+FUCHS NRN40-L3K-A2-C-V1 inductive sensor detects metal objects without contact. Its 40 mm sensing distance and non-flush installation suit applications where the target may not be directly against the sensing face. The rectangular PBT housing withstands industrial environments, and the M12 connector simplifies installation.
