872C-DH3CN12 Allen Bradley

Description

Product Name: 872C-DH3CN12 Allen Braley Central control module

Product details:

The Allen-Bradley 872C-DH3CN12 is a high-performance, WorldProx™ inductive proximity sensor designed for industrial-grade non-contact metal detection. It is part of Rockwell Automation’s line of cost-effective, rugged sensors.

1. Product Overview

The 872C-DH3CN12 belongs to the WorldProx family, featuring a nickel-plated brass barrel and a high-visibility status indicator. It is engineered to detect ferrous and non-ferrous metal objects without physical contact, making it ideal for high-speed automated environments.

2. Technical Specifications

Below are the primary technical parameters for this specific model:

3. Product Advantages

• Rugged Construction: The nickel-plated brass housing provides excellent resistance to corrosion and mechanical impact.
• High Switching Frequency: Capable of high-speed sensing, making it perfect for rapid production lines.
• 360° Visibility: Equipped with highly visible LEDs that indicate “Power On” and “Output Status,” allowing for easy troubleshooting from any angle.
• Standardized Mounting: The M12 threaded barrel is a global standard, ensuring easy integration into existing machinery.
• Protection Features: Includes short-circuit, overload, and reverse polarity protection to prevent sensor damage during wiring errors.

4. Key Considerations & Precautions

• Target Material: Sensing distance is rated for mild steel. If you are detecting aluminum, copper, or brass, the sensing range will be reduced (Correction Factors apply).
• Interference: Since this is a shielded (flush) sensor, it can be mounted flush with the metal mounting surface. However, ensure no other metal objects enter the “sensing zone” unintentionally.
• Wiring: Always verify the pinout of your M12 cable before powering the unit to ensure the NPN output is compatible with your PLC input card.
• Environment: While rated IP67, avoid constant immersion in high-pressure steam or highly acidic chemicals which may degrade the plastic sensing face over time.

5. Typical Applications

The 872C-DH3CN12 is widely used across various industries including:

• Packaging: Counting cans, bottles, or metal lids on a conveyor.
• Automotive: Detecting the presence of parts in assembly jigs.
• Material Handling: Monitoring the position of pneumatic cylinders or sorting metal components.
• General Manufacturing: Used as a limit switch for machine tool positioning.
