Proximity Sensors Description

Space-saving

EZ/EVSeries With a sensor body up to 30% shorter than previous models, the EZ/
EV Series proximity sensor offers high sensitivity and long detecting
distance.

Features
● Compact sensor head Easy-to-see output indicator
An output indicator is built into the
● Visible output indicator built into sensor
sensor unit in such a manner that
● Flexible cable joint sensor operation can be easily
● IP-67-rated housing confirmed from virtually any angle.

Detecting Distance
DC 3-wire – Up to 10 mm (0.39")
DC 2-wire – Up to 27 mm (1.06")
DC 2-wire (connector type) – Up to 27 mm (1.06")
AC 2-wire – Up to 10 mm (0.39")
Flexible joint
The cable is connected to the
sensor head with a highly flexible
joint that can be bent to a 90-
degree angle, thus preventing
cable wire breakage.

Standard model
Flexible cable
guard increases
seal strength.
Oil- and heat-
resistant cable

Thick stainless steel

housing (EZ-8M)

Special engineering plastic highly resistant to oil

Spatter-resistant model
A spatter-resistant model Sensor housing:
is also available. Teflon®-coated

This model has a Teflon®

detecting surface and
Teflon®-coated threads,
nuts, and washers to
Nut/washer: Teflon®-coated
repel welding spatter.

Detecting surface: Teflon®

Connector models
Standard and spatter-
resistant models are
available with connectors.
M12 connector (male)
IP-67 compliant
