General
Flush installation
A proximity sensor can be embedded
in an attenuating
material so that it is flush with
the active surface.
NPN output
Proximity sensors with NPN output
switch the negative potential to the
load. They are also described as
negative-switching or current-sinking.
Load

-Output
Output function
Normally open: A proximity sensor
with make function is disabled in the
unattenuated state (high resistance)
and is switched in the attenuated
state (low resistance).
Operating voltage Ub
Voltage range in which the proximity
sensor can function reliably.
Overload resistance
See also short-circuit protection.
The response threshold for overload
protection is greater than the value for
continuous current-carrying capacity.
Normally closed: A proximity sensor
with brake function is switched in the
unattenuated state (low resistance)
and disabled in the attenuated state
(high resistance).
Housing material
Brass, nickel-plated
Stainless steel
Aluminium
Plastic ( PA12, PBT, PPE )
If the sensors are to be frequently or
continuously exposed to chemicals,
an application test must be
performed. Contact SICK AG for
further information.
Hysteresis H
The hysteresis is the positional
difference between the activation and
deactivation point for attenuating
material as it is brought closer or
moved away. It is required to ensure
a smooth, stable switching action. It
is given as a percentage of the real
sensing range or in mm.
Minimum load current
Smallest load current that must flow
with connected output in order to
ensure the reliable operation of
2-wire proximity sensors.
Non-flush installation
A proximity sensor must be installed
in such a way that a free-zone is
maintained.

begins to oscillate.
Repeatability R
Switching point difference for the
useful sensing range between two
consecutive measurements under
identical conditions.

The connections of the proximity
sensor can be connected to the
wrong terminals without the sensor
being damaged.
Reverse polarity protection
An internal protection circuit prevents
the DC 3/4-wire proximity sensors
from being destroyed if the supply
voltage connections are incorrectly
connected, and also ensures that no
misoperation can occur which would
result in an undesired signal being
issued.

Short-circuit protection
Proximity sensors with short-circuit
protection cannot be destroyed by
either overloading or a direct short-
circuit. When the triggering threshold
is exceeded, the output is disabled
and then periodically (in cycles) polled
to establish whether the short-circuit
still exists. An automatic reset is
performed once the short-circuit has
been eliminated.
Short-circuit protection (with
NAMUR sensor to EN 50227)
The proximity sensor is not destroyed
if the load short-circuits or in the case
of a short-cirtcuit to ground at the
output.
Status indicator
The forced triggering of the output

DC 3/4-wire sensors
Apart from the oscillator, direct-
current sensors also have an output
amplifier. They are supplied as 3/4-
wire sensors with NO, NC,
complementary or programmable
outputs. Sensors of this type have
short-circuit, reverse-polarity
protection, and power-up pulse
suppression. The residual current is
negligable. A capacitive load of up to
0.15 µF can be connected. These
sensors are supplied as:
- NC, negative-switching (NPN)
- NC, positive-switching (PNP)
- NO, negative-switching (NPN)
- NO, positive-switching (PNP)

Serial connection of 3-wire sensors:
With series connection, the voltage

AC/DC 2-wire sensors
Apart from the oscillator, alternating
current 2-wire sensors also have a
transistor as an output amplifier.
These sensors are directly operated
in series with the load. As a result, a
small residual current flows across
the load when the sensors are
disabled. In forced-tripping mode, a
drop in voltage also occurs at the
sensor.

NAMUR sensor to EN 50227
These sensors are 2-wire electric
position encoders which are usually
connected to the control input of a
switching amplifier.
The direct-current source of the
switching amplifier provides the
sensors with power. If metal or
magnets are positioned close to the
sensors, the internal resistance of the
NAMUR sensor changes (constant
distance/current curve, see graph).
The change in internal resistance is
evaluated by the switching amplifier
and converted into a digital signal.
All NAMUR sensors have a
classification for division 1 areas.
They can be used in combination
with Isolating units.
Typical standard operating values for
a control circuit with intrinsic safety
protection:
UN= 8.2 V
Ri=1 KW
Iattenuated < 1.2 mA
Iunattenuated > 2.1 mA
The falling curve from right to left only
applies to inductive sensors. The
curve for magnetic sensors has
exactly the same characteristics, but
ascends from right to left:
Iattenuated > 2.1 mA
Iunattenuated < 1.2 mA

Conformities
Directives for consumer and capital goods enetering the European market
have been established by the EU commission to standardise the European
single market. To indicate fulfilment of these directives, manufacturers attach
the "CE-symbol" to their products.
This symbol also issued by the Underwriters Laboratories bears the letter "L"
("listed". This means that the machine has been granted an individual approval '
with an approval number. This symbol permits the checking of product´s mass
production at any time and without prior notice.
The Canadian operating regulations for electrical plants and components are
subject to the CEC /Canadian Electrical Code) whicg descibes CSA conformity
for all machines. The Canadian Standard Assiciation issues the CSA symbol
after the testing of individual components.
14 SICK 8 007 755.0300
Response curve for inductive
proximity sensors
The specified sensing ranges are
determined in the case of axial
approach along the reference axis of
the sensor.
Radial approach results in a reduction
of the sensing range. The edge of the
switching trigger has only a small
surface area. As a result, less eddy-
current losses occur. The sensor
therefore only reacts if the switching
trigger laterally enters the alternating
field relatively close to the sensing
face. In the case of axial approach,
the full surface of the switching trigger
is exposed to the scattered
electromagnetic field. Axial alignment
therefore provides the maximum sen-
sing range.
Operating Principle
Inductive proximity sensors
Alternating field
Sensing face
Switching amplifierLC oscillating circuit Signal evaluator
Attenuating
material
LC
An inductive proximity sensor
comprises an LC oscillating circuit, a
signal evaluator, and a switching
amplifier.
The coil of this oscillating circuit
generates a high-frequency
electromagnetic alternating field. This
field is emitted at the sensing face of
the sensor.
If attenuating material nears the sen-
sing face, eddy currents are gene-
rated in the case of non-ferrite metals.
In the case of ferromagnetic metals,
hysteresis and eddy-current loss also
occurs.
These losses draw energy from the
oscillating circuit and reduce
oscillation. The signal evaluator
detects this reduction and converts it
into a switching signal.
The terms "attenuated" and
"unattenuated" are used to describe
the two switching states of the
inductive proximity sensors.

Rated switching trigger
All sensing range measurements
must be performed by axially moving
a standard square measuring plate
made of St37 (1 mm thick) through
the alternating field. The length of the
switching trigger sides is equal to the
diameter of the response area or is
3 sn. The larger value should be
taken.
Reduction factor RM
The specified sensing ranges all relate
to St37. Considerable reductions in
distance sometimes occur in the case
of other materials.
Approximate reference values, which
can vary from type to type:
St37 ( Fe ) 1
Stainless steel ( V2A ) 0.8
Aluminium (solid) 0.45
Copper ( Cu ) 0.4
These correction factors must be
taken into consideration when
selecting actuation elements or when
calibrating to objects made of the
respective alloys.
Glossary

When proximity sensors are installed,
the reliable sensing range ( 8 1 % o f sn)

Flush installation in metal
Proximity sensors for flush installation
are shielded internally around the
ferrite core. As a result, the sensor
can be embedded in the metal up to
the sensing face.
Proximity sensors for flush installation
have a smaller sensing range
compared to proximity sensors for
non-flush installation with the same
shape and design.

These sensors with enhanced sen-
sing range are not flush installable in
