Frequently asked questions

What is the significance of the 'NP' in the Allen Bradley 872CDN8NP-12-D4 part number?

The 'NP' in the 872CDN8NP-12-D4 part number typically indicates a Normally Closed (NC) output configuration. This means the sensor's internal switch is closed when no metallic object is detected and opens when an object enters the sensing field.
