Balluff BES M12MI-PSC20B-S04G Proximity Sensor

Balluff BES M12MI-PSC20B-S04G is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor (Ø12 x 65 mm) with flush-mount capability for detecting metal targets in tight spaces. Housed in brass with a nickel-free coating and a PBT sensing face, it uses a 4-pin M12x1 connector and operates from 10 to 30 V DC, delivering a PNP normally open (NO) switching output. The sensor has a 2 mm sensing range and a switching frequency up to 3,500 Hz, making it suitable for high-speed automation tasks. It carries an IP68 rating for protection against dust and water ingress and operates across a wide ambient temperature range of -25 to 70 °C. The BES0060 variant is designed for factory automation and machine-building applications where compact, robust metal-detection sensing is required, and its cylindrical form with flush mounting helps minimize obstruction in crowded panels and conveyors.
