Turck NI40-CP80-FZ3X2 - IP67 40mm Non-Contact - Industrial Heavy-Duty Stainless - Inductive Proximity Sensor

The Turck NI40-CP80-FZ3X2 is a rugged inductive proximity sensor designed for precise object detection in harsh industrial environments. Part of Turck's NI40 series, this sensor features a cylindrical stainless steel housing (M30x1.5 thread) with IP67/IP69K protection, ensuring resistance to dust, water jets, and mechanical impacts. It operates on a 10-30 V DC supply and provides a PNP normally open (NO) output, making it compatible with PLCs and control systems. The sensor's advanced coil technology enables reliable detection of ferrous and non-ferrous metal targets, even in high-vibration or temperature-fluctuating settings. Its compact design and threaded mounting simplify integration into machinery, conveyor systems, and automated production lines.

The NI40-CP80-FZ3X2 is widely deployed in industries requiring robust and reliable proximity sensing:

• Material Handling: Detecting pallets, metal parts, or robotic gripper positions on automated lines.
• Heavy Machinery: Monitoring hydraulic cylinder strokes or safety interlocks in construction equipment.
• Food & Beverage: Sanitary environments where washdown resistance is critical.
• Automotive: Position verification of metal components in assembly robots.
• Packaging: Ensuring correct alignment of metal lids or containers on filling machines.

Its immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) ensures stable performance near motors or welding equipment.

1. Extended Sensing Range: 40 mm detection distance accommodates larger or irregularly shaped targets.
2. Durability: Stainless steel housing resists corrosion, acids, and alkalis in aggressive environments.
3. Precision: Adjustable sensitivity minimizes false triggers caused by background metals.
4. Easy Integration: Pre-wired M12 connectors reduce installation time and maintenance costs.
5. Versatility: Compatible with both ferrous (e.g., steel) and non-ferrous (e.g., aluminum, brass) targets.

• Adjustable Hysteresis: Minimizes signal oscillation near the sensing threshold.
• Short-Circuit Protection: Safeguards output circuits from overloads or wiring errors.
• Status Indicators: Dual LEDs for power (green) and output state (yellow).
• Teach-In Function: Simplifies calibration via push-button or remote input.
• IO-Link Compatibility (if supported): Enables real-time diagnostics and parameterization in smart factories.
