Cylindrical Inductive Proximity Sensor [Amplifier Built-in] GX-300

Panasonic — GX-300 Series

A current standard cylindrical inductive proximity sensor with built-in amplifier, available in small-diameter and threaded (M8/M12/M18/M30) body styles. Detects ferrous metal targets via high-frequency oscillation and is used for position and origin detection. Offered in standard and long sensing-range variants with NPN or PNP output.
