Pro-Range CLJ-A18M-5APB PNP M18 Inductive Proximity Sensor - 5mm Detection Distance
The Pro-Range CLJ-A18M-5APB is an M18-threaded, PNP-output inductive proximity sensor designed for non-contact detection of metallic objects at a nominal 5mm range. It integrates seamlessly into industrial PLCs, automation controllers, and 12-24V DC systems for reliable position sensing and limit switching.
Features
- PNP (Sourcing) output configuration compatible with standard PLC sinking inputs.
- M18 x 1 threaded stainless steel housing for robust industrial mounting.
- 5mm nominal detection distance for precise non-contact sensing of ferrous metals.
- Built-in polarity and short-circuit protection for enhanced electrical durability.
- Fast response time and high repeatability for automation and machinery control.

The CLJ-A18M-5APB operates on the electromagnetic induction principle, generating an oscillating field from its face. When a conductive metal object enters this field, eddy currents are induced, causing a detectable change in the sensor’s oscillation amplitude. This change is conditioned internally to switch the PNP transistor output.
Engineered for harsh industrial environments, the sensor’s housing provides mechanical strength and resistance to incidental contact. Its 5mm sensing distance offers a balance between detection precision and installation tolerance, making it suitable for applications like part presence verification, end-of-travel detection, and automated counting systems where reliability is critical.
