Schneider Electric XS1M18AB120 Inductive Proximity Sensor

The Schneider Electric XS1M18AB120 inductive proximity sensor provides non-contact detection of ferrous metal objects with a 4–20 mA analog output for process control and continuous position feedback in industrial automation. Housed in a nickel-plated brass M18 cylindrical body with a 2 m cable, it operates on 12–24 V DC and offers a single NC output channel in a flush-mount design. With a 5 mm sensing distance and 500 Hz switching frequency, this IP67-rated sensor supports reliable metal object position sensing and distance measurement in conveyors, packaging equipment, machine tools, and assembly lines. Designed for repair, replacement, retrofit, or new equipment integration, it comes from Schneider Electric / Telemecanique Sensors as part of the XS1 family to meet industrial automation needs where precise analog feedback and compact form factor are essential.
