Telemecanique Sensors Inductive Proximity Sensor, Threaded Barrel, PNP Output, 24V DC, 5mm, M18 x 1, IP65/IP67 XS118BLPAL2

The Telemecanique Sensors XS118BLPAL2 Inductive Proximity Sensor is engineered for robust and reliable metal detection across a range of demanding industrial environments. This sensor utilizes non-contact induction technology to sense ferrous and non-ferrous metal objects, ensuring process automation with minimal wear and maintenance.

Featuring a threaded M18 x 1 barrel design with a nickel plated brass housing, the XS118BLPAL2 is built for durability in environments prone to vibration, shock, oil, and dirt. The sensor delivers a nominal sensing range of 5 mm and employs a PNP output for straightforward integration into industrial control systems using a 24 V DC supply. The device supports flush mounting for streamlined installation within compact automation frameworks.

Operates with a 24 V DC maximum supply voltage and delivers an output current up to 200 mA, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of automation systems. Provides a maximum switching frequency of 1.2 kHz, ideal for high-speed sensing applications.

The sensor's body is sealed to both IP65 and IP67 ratings, offering strong protection against dust ingress and water immersion. Works reliably in ambient temperatures from -25°C to 70°C for flexible deployment in industrial and transportation sectors.

Unshielded (non-flush) design grants flexibility for different proximity detection requirements.

Inductive proximity sensors like this model from Telemecanique Sensors are commonly used for position sensing, presence detection, counting, and speed monitoring in applications such as packaging, robotics, material handling, conveyor systems, assembly machines, and food and beverage automation.

The XS118BLPAL2 is especially suited for environments where immunity to oil and contamination is paramount, thanks to its ruggedized construction. It achieves consistent operational performance even in areas subjected to mechanical shocks or washdowns, due to adherence to relevant industrial standards (CE, CSA, IEC 60529, UL).
