Schneider Electric XS1M18PA370A Inductive Proximity Switch

The Schneider Electric / Telemecanique XS1M18PA370A inductive proximity switch is a cylindrical M18 sensor designed for non-contact detection of metal objects in industrial automation. Commonly deployed on conveyors, packaging equipment, assembly lines, and machine tools, it provides reliable object sensing and position feedback without direct contact with the workpiece. It operates from 12–48 V DC with a 3-wire PNP normally open output, 5–200 mA, and uses a 7/8"-16 UNF male connector (3 pins); it features a 5 mm sensing distance, nickel-plated brass housing, IP67 protection, and flush-mount design rated for up to 2000 Hz. Certifications include CE, UL, CSA, and CCC.
