Electric Proximity Switch
Proximity Switch · Inductive
This is an Eaton rectangular, limit switch style inductive proximity sensor, part number E55BLT1C. It is designed for use in industrial automation and control systems, such as those found on concrete batch plants. These sensors are often used to confirm the open or closed position of aggregate gates, mixer doors, or other moving components, ensuring safe and proper sequencing of the batching process. Encased in a durable PBT resin housing with an IP67 rating, it is built to withstand harsh environments, including car wash applications and outdoor machinery. This 2-wire AC sensor operates on 35-250V AC and provides a configurable NO/NC output.
