| GI Hall-Effect Magnetic Proximity Sensors GI Hall-effect sensors detect the specified magnetic target at a 10 mm nominal catalog distance. Compare cylindrical housing lengths, NPN/PNP outputs and the metal sensing-face option. | 24, 27–28 |
The catalog describes flush installation in metal, side-by-side mounting, a metal sensing-face option and detection of a magnetic target through suitable nonmagnetic material. The actual intervening material, thickness and magnet must be verified. Use the exact drawing and the listed target magnet rather than a generic metal target.
The tables specify magnets from Ø8 x 2 mm to Ø18 x 2 mm according to the housing. Match that reference when comparing models.
The Hall models are specified for magnetic targets. Confirm the actual magnetic arrangement rather than substituting a steel reference target.
