Overview
The
HTP HTP1-1808P-ARL4 is a rugged 3-wire M18 inductive proximity sensor built for reliable metal target detection in automated machinery. It features a shielded 8 mm sensing distance, PNP normally open output, and a durable nickel plated brass body with a 75 mm length.M18PNP NOIP67
Designed for repeatable sensing, this sensor includes tight hysteresis, 4-view LED indication, wrench flats for easier installation, and short circuit/reverse polarity protection.
🎯 Reliable Metal Detection
Inductive Sensing: Detects metal targets, not plastic targets.
Shielded 8 mm Range: Extended sensing distance for automated machinery.
Fast Response: 500 Hz switching frequency supports machine part detection.
