Omron Proximity Sensor B7AP Series
Omron Proximity Sensor B7AP
The metal heads of the E2EF achieve the same distances for
the same sizes as the E2E Proximity Sensors with Resin
Heads.
This allows you to use Proximity Sensors that withstand
friction with the workpiece without major changes to
mounting brakets.
The 0.4-mm metal head exhibits almost no wear due to
friction with the workpiece or cleaning with metal brushes.
This helps prevent equipment down time due to sensor failure
and reduces the frequency of replacement.
Spatter-resistant models with fluororesin-coated head are
also available.
Reduces adhesion of spatter to achieve
stable detection.
The tough all-stainless steel housing with a flame-retardant
cable enables reliable application where spatter is present
near welding machines.

Transmits Input Device ON/OFF Signals and Power.
The Key to Effortless Wiring for Rotating and Moving Bodies.
Transmit Multiple Switch Signals and Power to without Contact
By connecting the B7AP Power Coupler between the B7A Input
Unit and B7A Output Unit,
it is possible to transmit multiple switch signals without contact
from input devices to controllers.
When using the B7AP Power Coupler in this way,
it is possible to transmit power via electromagnetic coupling,
so a power supply for the Input Unit is not necessary.
Total Transmission Distance Up to 100 m
Transmission distance Between Couplers Between B7AP-S1 and
B7AP-M1: 8 ± 1.5 mm
Between Input Unit and Output Unit Between B7A Input and
Output Units: 100 m max. *1
