Eaton E57G-12SPN2-C2 Inductive Proximity Sensor 12 mm

SKU CH-FEHT-DRGHX

A shielded inductive proximity sensor with a 12 mm stainless-steel body, 2 mm sensing range, 10 to 30 V DC supply, PNP normally-open output on a 2 m cable.

  • 12 mm cylindrical inductive sensor for tight spaces
  • 2 mm shielded detection ignores nearby metal
  • 10–30 V DC three-wire PNP output
  • IP67 and NEMA 4X stainless steel resists washdown
  • 13 °F to 158 °F operating range handles extremes

12 mm Inductive Proximity Sensor

The Eaton E57G-12SPN2-C2 is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor designed for industrial automation and machinery applications. It detects metal objects without physical contact in environments such as assembly lines, packaging equipment, and machine tool monitoring. The stainless steel housing and high protection ratings suit harsh conditions including exposure to water, oil, and coolant.

2 mm Shielded Sensing Distance

The sensor offers a maximum detecting distance of 2 mm with a shielded design that allows flush mounting in metal without interference. It operates on 10 to 30 V DC power and provides a 3-wire PNP normally open output with a 100 mA maximum current load. The 2,000 Hz operating frequency supports rapid cycling for high-speed detection tasks.

2 m Cable and IP67 Rating

A 2 m integral cable provides the electrical connection, eliminating the need for a separate connector and simplifying installation in tight spaces. The IP67 and NEMA 4X ratings ensure reliable operation when subjected to temporary immersion, high-pressure washdown, or corrosive atmospheres. The operating temperature range spans -13 to 158 degrees Fahrenheit for use in cold storage or high-heat processes.

Questions about this item

What does the 2 mm sensing distance mean when the sensor is mounted on a production line?

The sensor will detect a standard metal target reliably up to 2 mm away from its face, so the mounting bracket must keep the target within that gap during operation.

What does the 3-wire PNP output with a 10 to 30 V DC supply cap in practice?

The output switches the load to the positive rail and draws up to 100 mA, so the connected PLC input or relay coil must operate within that voltage window and current limit.

What clearance does the 12 mm diameter stainless-steel body and 64 mm length need for installation?

A 12 mm clearance hole or threaded mount with at least 64 mm of straight depth is required, plus room for the 2 m cable bend radius at the back.
