Turck BI8 Series Inductive Barrel-Style Proximity Sensor, M18 x 1, 8 mm Detection, PNP Output, 10 → 30 V dc, IP67

Keep track of objects in a set area using this proximity sensor from Turck. When something enters its sensing range, this unit sends a signal to notify the control system. You can use it to detect items made from ferrous metals like aluminium, copper, brass and iron, so it's a versatile piece of kit. An LED indicator flashes on and off to let you know when it's active, so monitoring is a breeze. To seal the deal, a plastic and EPTR end cap keeps this device protected against contaminants for improved performance.

• MTTF of 2,283 years for long-lasting performance
• Repeat accuracy of ≤2% for reliable detection
• Integrated short circuit and reverse polarity protection to help prevent electrical hazards
• Wide operating temperature range between -25°C and +70°C for use in harsh environments
• Tough chrome-plated metal housing is resistant to impact and corrosion

• Food and beverage production
• Assembly plants
• Packaging facilities

You can mount this sensor by installing it on a panel. Its barrel body is designed to stay flush to the panel, minimising the risk of knocks and bumps for increased sensing accuracy.

Turck Banner Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensors

Inductive sensors are designed for contact-less and wear-free detection. They are the perfect solution for breweries, frozen food, dairies and packaging applications. Resistant to cleaning agents and disinfectants and exceed the protection classes IP68 & IP69K. These sensors are available as standard versions in chrome plated brass barrels or stainless steel housing with LCP front cap and double lip seal for heavy use or sudden changes in temperature. All inductive sensors of the new uprox+ generation operate with highest switching distances, feature an extended temperature range and are easily mounted.Turck inductive proximity sensors are manufactured with shielded coil, designated by “Bi” in the part number, and a non-shielded coil, designated by “Ni” in the part number.
