Schneider Electric XS2M12PA370D Inductive Proximity Sensor

Schneider Electric XS2M12PA370D is a cylindrical M12 inductive proximity sensor from Schneider Electric / Telemecanique Sensors that enables non-contact detection of metal objects in industrial automation. Housed in nickel-plated brass, it offers a normally open (NO) PNP, 3-wire output via a 4-pin M12 connector and operates on 12–48 V DC with a maximum current of 200 mA. With a sensing distance of 4 mm and flush-mount design, the sensor provides reliable metal-detection feedback in compact spaces. It carries IP67 protection and a switching frequency up to 2500 Hz, making it suitable for fast-moving conveyors, packaging equipment, assembly lines, and machine tools where position sensing and object detection are required. This XS2 family device is intended for repair, replacement, retrofit, or new equipment integration by maintenance teams, OEMs, and system integrators. Common replacements listed for this part include XS2M12PA370, XS212BLPAM12, and XS1N12PA349D.
