GX-F/H SERIES
Industry No. 1* in stable sensing
Oil resistant
Can be installed with ample space
This sensor has the longest stable sensing range among the same level of rectangular inductive proximity sensors in
the industry. It is easy to install the sensor.
Conforming to
EMC Directive
PNP output
type available
Different freq.
type available
Variation at the maximum operation distance is within ±8 %
Temperature characteristics vary within ±8 %
Thorough adjustment and control of sensing sensitivity
greatly reduces individual sensor differences and
variations.
The work of adjusting sensor positions when using
multiple sensors and when sensors have been replaced
is much easier.

Components such as the sensor coil and core and
product design have been totally revised to provide
excellent temperature characteristics.
Stable sensing can be obtained regardless of the time of
day or the yearly season.
