Product Details
Turck Proximity Sensor, Flush Mounting, 2% Repeat Accuracy - BI 8 Series - Bi8-M18-AP6X
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

How do I mount this sensor?
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.
