Emerson presents the TopWorx™ GO™ Switch model 52M, a low profile, dry contact, proximity sensor with a 316L stainless steel sensing face in an industry standard 12mm package. It can handle a wide temperature range from -40°C to 100°C and it’s suitable for IP69K applications.
The 52M does not require power to operate and is polarity insensitive with zero need to specify NPN or PNP circuits and maintains the ability to be a plug-and-play replacement for inductive proximity sensors.

Features & Benefits:
* Can operate in large magnetic fields without interrupting its performance thanks to Weld Field Immune Standard
* Can be wired as Normally Open, Normally Closed or Normally Open/Normally Closed due to simple contact arrangement
* Offers higher durability to physically abusive environments as a result of its stainless steel sensing face
* Can operate at a wide current range, from 5mA to 2A @ 24VDC
* Ideal for applications where power consumption needs to be kept at a minimum

Applications:
* Great for machine tools
* 3D printing equipment
* Food & Beverage
* Pharmaceutical & Life Sciences
* Industrial Equipment, i.e. Regulators, Lift Elevators, etc.
