The Schneider Electric XS1 08BLPAL2 is a cylindrical M8 inductive proximity sensor designed for non-contact detection of metal objects in industrial automation. It operates with a 12–24 V DC supply, provides a normally open output, and draws up to 50 mA, with a 2 m cable for easy wiring. Its nickel-plated brass housing, IP67 rating, and flush-mount design support reliable performance in conveyors, packaging machines, assembly lines, and other material-handling equipment, with a sensing distance of 1.5 mm for position sensing and object detection. Certifications include CE, UL, and CSA.
