    Q12 sensors achieve a 5-mm sensing range when flush mounted.

    Measuring 12 X 40 X 26 mm, the sensors feature a 45° connector. They incorporate coils on a PCB with staggered oscillator frequencies, allowing them to be mounted directly next to each other. They have high resistance to electromagnetic interference.
