Telemecanique Sensors Inductive Proximity Sensor Threaded Barrel, M12 x 1, PNP, XS112B3PCL2, 36V DC, 4 mm Detection, 200mA

Telemecanique Sensors XS112B3PCL2 is a highly reliable inductive proximity sensor featuring a threaded barrel design with M12 x 1 dimensions. Engineered for industrial and automation environments, this sensor utilizes PNP output logic and operates at supply voltages up to 36 V DC. With a maximum switching current of 200mA and 4 mm detection distance, it is ideally suited for sensing metal objects in manufacturing, logistics, and material handling systems.

The device is constructed in a flush mounting configuration, allowing installation in tight spaces. Its nickel plated brass housing ensures mechanical resilience, while dual IP65 and IP68 protection ratings guarantee safe operation in dusty, wet, or high-vibration conditions. The 2-meter cable terminal type provides installation flexibility across machine tools, conveyors, and robotics.

Key technical attributes include unshielded sensing, a maximum switching frequency of 5 kHz for fast response times, and compatibility with a range of controllers and PLCs. The XS112B3PCL2 is part of the OsiSense XS series, supporting demanding industrial applications such as railway operations, mobile equipment, lifts, material handling, packaging, and robotic tasks.

Inductive proximity sensors by Telemecanique are unaffected by contaminants such as oil, dirt, or metal surface finishes, enabling accurate non-contact detection even in harsh environments. This model's combination of robust protection, cable flexibility, and precise detection makes it suitable for continuous, automated production lines and safety interlocks.

Industrial use cases include: manufacturing automation, conveyor belt sensing, robotic arm position detection, food and beverage processing, pharmaceutical packaging, and machine tool monitoring. Its compliance with major standards (CSA, EN/ISO 13849-1, IEC 60068, IEC 60529, IEC 62061, TUV, UL) reinforces its suitability for safe and certified installations.

Threaded barrel form factor ensures stable mechanical installation. Robust nickel plated brass housing withstands heavy-duty conditions. Flush mounting saves space in automated industrial setups. Cable terminal with 2 m length offers flexible deployment.

Up to 36 V DC operation for wide voltage tolerance. Precision metal object sensing at 4 mm detection distance. PNP output compatible with digital control logic and PLCs. High switching current (200mA) supports control of actuators or alarm relays.
