GX-3S
inductive proximity sensor having a
diameter of just "3.8 mm
GX-3S
Long sensing range
The non-shielded type (GX-8ML )
has twice the sensing range of the
shielded type (GX-8M ), although
having the same size. Hence, it allows
margin against sensing distance
variations.

Various applications
The GX series can be used for various
applications because of its wide supply
voltage range, open-collector transistor
output, sufficient output capacity and
IP67 protection.
Robust housing
The GX-4S uses a robust stainless
steel housing. The tightening torque
can be 0.58 N m or less.
