My current proximity switch got damaged and I need a replacement and I am finding it difficult to find one online.
I did find one but it was a 2-wire switch and the one I have is a 3-wire switch. At the minute I can bypass the switch by looping the live to the return wire. The 3rd wire is like an earth but I would like to know if a 3-wire proximity switch is actually needed and a 2-wire will actually do the job perfectly?
It a 5-60 Vdc, 400mA PNP barrel sensor switch.
Cheers for any help.
