The unit uses five roller-equipped switch positions spaced 12 mm apart, enabling precise staging of machine states as parts move along a conveyor or indexing grid. It arrives in a rugged aluminum, anodized housing with dimensions of 120 x 96 x 64 mm, designed for vertical mounting and an approach direction parallel to the mounting surface. Operating in ambient temperatures from -5 to 85 °C, the device carries IP67 protection to resist dust and water exposure typical in industrial environments. Electrical ratings include a continuous current of up to 6 A with a rated operating voltage of up to 250 VAC, and field wiring is accomplished via screw terminals for solid, vibration-resistant connections. The switch is activated by mechanical contact (rollers) rather than electronic sensing, aligning with EN 60204-1 safety requirements for machinery. This makes it suitable for applications such as conveyor indexing, material handling, packaging lines, and other automation setups where repeatable, multi-point position feedback and a safety-interlocked configuration are essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BALLUFF","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51676431221038,"sku":null,"price":471.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0818\/1038\/files\/Ebay_website_image_76e45794-3850-4d1f-ba5b-00977f1a1db9.jpg?v=1769551483","url":"https:\/\/plgautomation.com\/products\/balluff-bns-813-d05-r12-62-12-05-proximity-switch","provider":"PLG Automation ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
