Information About CR8-AP-3F

The CR8-AP-3F is an AutomationDirect inductive proximity sensor engineered with a compact 8 x 8 x 59mm rectangular nickel-plated brass housing. It utilizes triple sensing technology to provide stable detection performance in standard industrial environments. The sensor operates on 10–30 VDC and features a 3-wire PNP normally open configuration for integration with PLC digital inputs. Designed for semi-flush mounting, it includes a 3-pin M8 quick-disconnect connection and supports switching frequencies up to 1 kHz for responsive object detection.

Key Features:

  • Inductive Sensing Technology: Detects metallic targets without physical contact.
  • 3mm Sensing Distance: Suitable for precise short-range object detection.
  • PNP Normally Open Output: Compatible with standard PLC digital input circuits.
  • Compact Rectangular Housing: 8 x 8 x 59mm body for tight installation spaces.
  • 10–30 VDC Operating Voltage: Supports common industrial DC power systems.
  • 1 kHz Switching Frequency: Provides fast response for dynamic automation processes.
  • IP67 Protection Rating: Sealed for protection against dust and water ingress.
  • M8 Quick-Disconnect Connector: Simplifies wiring and maintenance (cable sold separately).

The CR8-AP-3F delivers the reliability and precision required for compact industrial metal detection and position sensing applications.
