How to Use NBB5‑18GM‑E0 Sensors

Installation & Wiring:

  1. Mount sensor in a metal or non-metal surface using M18 nuts; leave the sensing face flush with the surface.

  2. Wire the three pins/cables:

    • Brown = +V (5–36 V DC)

    • Blue = 0 V (Ground)

    • Black = Output to your PLC/controller

  3. Ensure proper connection polarity; protection features will guard against most miswiring.

Operation:

  • When a metal target enters ~5 mm range, the output switches on (closes circuit), indicated by a lit yellow LED.

  • When the target exits range, the output opens (LED turns off).

  • The sensor responds quickly (frequencies up to ~1950 Hz) pepperl-fuchs.com+1.

Maintenance:

  • Test with a standard steel target; use mounting nuts to adjust sensing position.

  • Check LED status to confirm output switching during setup and operation.

  • After a short-circuit event, verify functionality before resuming production pepperl-fuchs.com+1.
