Allen Bradley 872C-A2N8-A2 Inductive Proximity Sensor - 12mm, 8mm Sensing

The Allen Bradley 872C-A2N8-A2 is a 2-wire AC inductive proximity sensor designed for detecting metallic objects without physical contact. It features a 12mm diameter nickel-plated brass barrel with a standard barrel type and an extended sensing range of 8mm. This sensor operates with a voltage of 20-250V AC and provides a Normally Open (N.O.) output. It is a shielded sensor, comes with a 2-meter 2-wire PVC cable, and adheres to an IP67 enclosure rating.

This sensor is well-suited for applications requiring a longer detection distance compared to standard sensors, making it useful in environments where the target object might be further away or where there's a risk of physical impact. Common applications include automation systems in manufacturing, material handling, and machine building where reliable, non-contact detection of metal targets is essential.
