Compact Inductive Proximity Sensor GA-311/GH

High-speed response and excellent workability

UL Approved
UL : Recognition

Features
Suitable for high-speed applications

It has a high performance of 3.3 kHz response frequency.
These sensors are ideal for sensing objects moving at high speeds.

IP67G sensor head variations

The lineup includes 5 different models, from an ultracompact 2.8 mm 0.110 in diameter type to a spatterresistant type. Furthermore, all except for the GH-2SE are IP67G oil-resistant models so that they can be used with confidence even in adverse environments.

Excellent workability and ease of maintenance

They all have the same form as the FX-300 series of fiber sensors. The quick-connection cables are also of the same shape, so that fiber sensors and laser sensors can all be used together and less power supply wiring is required.

Labor-saving by one-touch connections

The connection between the sensor head and the amplifier is made using a quick-connection connector.
Past troublesome wiring connections using a screwdriver are no longer necessary.

Disconnection alarm indicator and operation indicator have been incorporated

Note : The stable sensing range represents the sensing range for which the sensor can satisfy all the given specifications with the standard sensing object.
The maximum operation distance represents the maximum distance for which the sensor can detect the standard sensing object at +20 ℃ +68 ℉ constant ambient temperature.
Usage within the stable sensing range is recommended for accurate sensing applications.

End plates

End plates are not supplied with the amplifier. Please order them separately when the amplifiers are mounted in cascade.

Appearance Model No. Description
MS-DIN-E When cascading multiple amplifiers, or when it moves depending on the way it is installed on a DIN rail, these end plates clamp amplifiers into place on both sides.
Make sure to use end plates when cascading multiple amplifiers together.
