In our case the plc input will be our load. In this video i demonstrate an npn inductive proximity sensor circuit.
How To Wire A Proximity Sensor To A Plc
Npn proximity sensor wiring diagram. Classification by output circuit. Photoelectric sensor works on ir principle and this sensor has 4 wireno and nc in sensor has also been explained4 wire sensor has both no and nc operating mode in it. Heres a simple way remember how to wire up a 3 wire dc pnp or npn sensor. You will notice that the load appears between the v brown and switching wire black. This sensor is the ck1 00 2h capacitive proximity sensor. Here is a wiring diagram of an npn sensor.
3 wire and 4 wire dc. When connecting to the plc the plc input acts as the load. When an object is placed near the sensor the output device turns on. Industrial sensors of all types have connection diagrams. Either the load is connected to negative and the positive is switched pnp continue reading an easy way to remember pnp and npn sensor. The following is a wiring diagram of an open collector npn sensor.
The v brown will be attached to the common input and the switching wire black will be attached to the input number. Inductive proximity sensor cutaway with annotation. The box in the diagram represents the load. Pnp switched positive npn switched negative switched refers to which side of the controlled load relay small indicator plc input is being switched electrically. Wiring diagrams show the hook up offour sensors with npn and pnp outputs. This classification is based on the type of output circuit and the output voltage.
