Balluff BES-517-140-U5-H Inductive Proximity Sensor

Balluff BES-517-140-U5-H is a block-style inductive proximity sensor from Balluff’s BES 517 family designed to detect metal targets without contact in rugged automation environments. The device measures 80 x 80 x 40 mm and supports non-flush installation, with a sensing range of 50 mm. It operates on 10–55 V DC and provides a configurable NPN switching output that can be wired as normally open or normally closed (NO/NC). The housing and sensing surface are made from PBT, contributing to durability in industrial settings, and the unit is rated IP67 for protection against dust and water ingress. Suitable for use on machine frames, conveyors, and robotic assemblies, the BES-517-140-U5-H offers reliable metal detection with Balluff’s legacy for robust construction and steady performance in demanding environments.
