Durable TLQ5MC2 inductive proximity switch sensor is built for long service life in demanding industrial environments, providing reliable performance over time. 5 mm detection distance offers accurate sensing with a compact installation footprint suitable for tight spaces. Normally closed configuration delivers reliable control signals as metal targets approach, supporting simple wiring and logic. Fast switching and sensitivity enable quick, precise responses in automation tasks and control circuits. Noncontact detection minimizes wear and reduces the risk of damage to both the sensor and target objects, contributing to safer and more reliable operation. Widely used in automation for detection, control, and noncontact switching, making it a versatile component in modern machines and systems. Stable performance across a range of industrial conditions ensures dependable operation in diverse environments. Easy integration into standard automation control schemes, supporting straightforward deployment in existing equipment. Applications Detect metal parts on conveyors or assembly lines to trigger downstream processes such as sorting, counting, or packaging. Serve as endoftravel or limit sensing for linear actuators or sliding components to stop motion and prevent overextension. traditional mechanical limit switches in automated equipment to reduce wear, maintenance, and downtime.
