Balluff BES 516-377-G-E5-C-S49 Inductive Proximity Sensor

Balluff BES 516-377-G-E5-C-S49 (BES0113) is a compact inductive proximity sensor housed in an Ø8 × 45 mm M8x1 cylinder designed for flush mounting in tight spaces. It detects metal targets with a 2 mm sensing range and provides a PNP normally closed (NC) output, simplifying connection to standard DC logic inputs. The sensor operates from a 10–30 VDC supply and features an IP68-rated rugged housing with a switching frequency up to 5 kHz, making it suitable for fast, repeatable sensing in harsh industrial environments. Its small, cylindrical form factor and flush-mounting style support applications in conveyors, automation modules, and compact control panels where space is at a premium. As part of Balluff's BES proximity sensor family, BES0113 carries a Digital Product Passport for traceability and documentation in industrial deployments.
