Standard Type Cylindrical Inductive Proximity Sensors with Improved Basic Performance
Response frequency of 5 kHz* allows the use of high-speed application
* In the case of GX-303S
The GX-303S boasts a response frequency of 5 kHz and realizes high speed response.
The response frequency of other sensor models has been also improved by up to 4 times as compared to our conventional models.
Since the GX-300 series responds quickly to sensor ON/OFF judgement, it works well with a high-speed application and contributes to the reduction of equipment cycle time.
What is response frequency?
A rotating plate having the standard sensing object pasted at constant intervals is placed in front of the proximity sensor. The plate is rotated while observing the sensing output. The maximum number of times per second at which sensing can be done, for which the corresponding sensing output can be obtained, is the maximum response frequency.
In other words, the larger the numeric value of the response frequency is, the faster the response is.
Example) Conversion of response frequency to response speed
1 kHz → 1-ms cycle
5 kHz → 0.2-ms cycle

Enhanced a degree of the detection margin
Sensing over long distance
The M8 / M12 / M18 / M30 threaded type sensors are available in standard sensing range type or long sensing range type ("K" at the end of model No.).
The long sensing range means reliable detection with plenty of performance margin to spare.
