The Allen Bradley 871T-L8B18 is a compact inductive proximity switch designed for reliable metal detection without direct contact. This module features a sleek tubular design with an 18 mm diameter encompassed by a stainless steel barrel, providing both robust protection and longevity. The sensing face consists of a durable plastic material, which contributes to its resilience in industrial applications.

This switch operates effectively at an electrical voltage range of 10 to 30 VDC and has a functioning distance of up to 8 mm. Its normally open output configuration type is PNP, allowing for efficient integration into existing control systems. Capable of delivering a maximum load current of 400 mA and a switching frequency of 500 Hz, the 871T-L8B18 stands out for its responsiveness and effectiveness in various scenarios.

The connection to the device is made through a PVC cable that is 3 meters long, allowing flexibility in installation. Moreover, with an enclosure protection rating of IP67 and NEMA classifications of 4, 12, and 13, this proximity switch is designed to resist dust and water ingress, enabling it to function reliably in harsh environments. The unshielded (non-flush) design further enhances its performance in applications requiring accurate metal detection without interference.
