Eaton E57KM12 90 Degree Proximity Sensor 3 Inch

Product DescriptionThe EATON E57KM12 is a 90-degree type proximity sensor measuring 3 inches in length, designed for industrial detection and switching applications. It provides non-contact object detection, making it a reliable choice for control systems that require precise position sensing without mechanical wear. Weighing 0.16 pounds, the E57KM12 is a compact unit suited for installations where space and mounting angle matter. Licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this type of sensor in automated control and electrical distribution systems.The E57KM12 is used in industrial and commercial control panel applications where a 90-degree mounting orientation is required. Its 3-inch form factor allows installation in tight enclosures or mounting brackets where a straight-body sensor would not fit. Typical applications include conveyor systems, machine tool controls, and process automation equipment requiring consistent, repeatable object detection at a fixed sensing point.Key Features90-degree body orientation for right-angle mounting configurations3-inch body length accommodates space-constrained panel and bracket installationsNon-contact sensing eliminates mechanical wear over service lifeCompact 0.16-pound unit suitable for lightweight mounting structuresCompatibilityDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade proximity sensor for industrial control systems requiring a 90-degree type sensor with a 3-inch body length.Installation NotesInstallation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified industrial maintenance technician in accordance with applicable NEC guidelines. De-energize the control circuit and lock out the power source before mounting or wiring the sensor. Ensure the mounting surface and bracket angle align with the 90-degree body orientation to achieve proper sensing distance and axis alignment. Do not exceed the sensors rated electrical parameters during wiring.Technical SpecificationsBody Type: 90 DegreeBody Length: 3 inchesWeight: 0.16 poundsUPC: 78211310726Standard InformationBrand: EATONManufacturer Part Number: E57KM12
