DataSensing – FM Series

Cylindrical Inductive Sensor With Full Metal Housing

Brand : Datasensing

The DataSensing FM Series consists of full metal inductive proximity sensors designed for demanding industrial environments where durability and reliability are critical. These sensors detect metallic objects without physical contact by generating an electromagnetic field and identifying disturbances caused by nearby metal targets. The series is widely used in applications such as machine tools, automation systems, material handling equipment, and production lines where consistent object detection is required.

The FM Series is built with a robust AISI316L stainless steel housing, offering excellent resistance to mechanical stress, corrosion, and washdown conditions. Available in cylindrical sizes ranging from M8 to M30, the sensors provide enhanced sensing distance and high impact resistance on the sensing face. With protection ratings up to IP69K, these sensors can operate reliably in harsh environments involving dust, moisture, or high pressure cleaning processes.
