Balluff BES516-325-E4-C-05 Inductive Proximity Sensor

Balluff BES516-325-E4-C-05 Inductive Proximity Sensor (BES00PA) is a compact, flush-mount inductive switch designed for metal targets. Its cylindrical M12x1 form factor measures Ø12 x 33 mm and provides a 2 mm switching distance with a PNP normally open output. Powered from 10-30 VDC, it ships with a 5 m PVC cable for straightforward wiring. The device features a brass, nickel-free coated housing with a PBT sensing surface and is IP68-rated for protection in demanding environments. Its switching frequency is 3500 Hz, enabling fast response in high-speed automation. Operating temperatures span -25 to 70 °C, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial settings, including machine tools, assembly lines, and flush installations where space is constrained.
