LJ12A3-4-Z/BX NPN DC6-36V Approach Sensor Inductive Proximity Switch

Description

The LJ12A3-4-Z/BX is a high-quality inductive proximity sensor switch designed for non-contact detection of metallic objects.It operates on DC 6–36V and provides an NPN normally open (NO) output, making it easy to integrate with microcontrollers (Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi) or industrial controllers.With a sensing distance of up to 4mm, this durable sensor is widely used in CNC machines, 3D printers (auto bed leveling), conveyor systems, robotics, and automation projects.
