German P+F Beijiafu NCB series inductive proximity sensor

German P+F Beijiafu NCB series inductive proximity sensor

1、 Core features of NCB series

1. compact design

• The diameter of the shell is only4mm、8mm、12mmSuitable for installation in narrow spaces.

2. High detection accuracy

• Stable detection distance and high repeatability accuracy (± 3%).

3. sturdy and durable

• Stainless steel casing, protection levelIP67(Dustproof and waterproof), suitable for harsh industrial environments.

4. Multiple output modes

• NPN/PNP、 Normally open (NO)/normally closed (NC) options are available, compatible with different PLC control systems.

5. IO Link optional (some models)

• Support intelligent sensor functions such as parameter configuration and fault diagnosis (such as NCB8-18GM50-E2-IO).

2、 Naming Rules for NCB Series Models

ToNCB8-18GM50-E2For example:

• NCBSeries name (Compact Inductive Sensor).

• 8Shell diameter (8mm).

• 18Detection distance (18mm, for iron standard targets).

• GMInstallation method (GM=Non flush, FL=flush).

• 50Cable length (50cm, optional 20/40/50cm, etc.).

• E2Output type (E2=NPN normally open, V1=PNP normally closed).

3、 Main models and technical parameters

4、 Comparison between NCB series and NBN series

5、 Typical application scenarios

1. Small scale automation equipment

• Metal component inspection of end of arm tool (EOAT).

2. electronics manufacturing

• Positioning of metal components on PCB board (such as NCB4-12GM40).

3. medical equipment

• Precision instruments require small-sized sensors for metal component in place detection.

4. Automobile assembly line

• High precision inspection of engine components (such as NCB8-18GM50).

5. Logistics sorting system

• In place inspection of metal pallets or shelves (NCB12-30 series).

6、 Selection Guide

1. detection distance

• The detection distance for non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and copper will be shortened (about 50% of iron).

2. output type

• NPN（E0/E2）Suitable for Japanese PLCs (such as Mitsubishi OMRON）。

• PNP（V1/V3）Suitable for European PLCs such as Siemens and Beifu.

3. Installation method

• Flat Installation (FL)Can be embedded on metal surfaces to avoid collisions.

• Non flush installation (GM)The detection distance is longer, but it needs to be prominently installed.

4. Do I need IO Link

• If remote configuration or diagnosis is required, select with-IOThe model with suffix.

7、 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can the NBB series detect non-metallic objects?

→cannotInductive sensors are only suitable for metal detection. If you need to test plastics, liquids, etc., you should chooseCapacitive sensors (such as the Beijiafu NC series).

Q2: Is the detection distance of NB8-18GM50-E2 adjustable?

→non-adjustableThe detection distance is determined by the internal coil of the sensor, but the detection effect can be optimized by adjusting the installation position.

Q3: Can the NBN series replace the NBN series?

→canHowever, NCB has a slightly higher price and is suitable for situations where space is limited or higher precision is required.

Q4: What is the operating temperature range of the NBB series?

→-25 ° C to+70 ° CIt needs to be confirmed whether it is suitable for high temperature environments.
