Magnetic Proximity Sensor

Hall effect magnetic proximity sensor is a non-contact switch designed for precise position and motion detection. Using the Hall effect principle, these sensors respond to changes in magnetic fields and provide fast, stable output signals. They are widely used in industrial automation where long service life, high accuracy, and reliable switching are required.

SUCH M8, M12, and M18 Hall proximity switches detect magnets through non-metallic materials such as plastic, aluminum, or glass, making them ideal for enclosed or hard-to-reach installation points. With PNP or NPN (NO/NC) output methods, they integrate easily with PLCs, motion controllers, and automated machinery. Their rugged construction ensures dependable performance in environments with vibration, dust, or oil. Compact M8 models fit tight assemblies, while M12 and M18 sensors offer stronger magnetic detection for general and heavy-duty applications.

Advantages

• Accurate magnetic field detection without physical contact
• Compatible PNP or NPN outputs with NO/NC
• Works through plastic or non-metal barriers
• Fast response for position, speed, or end-of-travel detection
• Durable, vibration-resistant, and maintenance-free

Applications

SUCH Hall effect proximity switches are used for cylinder position sensing, magnetic limit detection, safety interlocks, rotation and speed monitoring, and position feedback in automation systems. They are widely adopted in packaging machinery, conveyors, robotics, pneumatic equipment, and general industrial control systems.
