Turck BI1-G08K-AP6X Inductive Proximity Switch

The Turck BI1-G08K-AP6X is a compact inductive proximity sensor that detects metal objects without contact, featuring a 1 mm sensing distance and an M8 threaded barrel for flush, embeddable mounting. Its AISI 303 stainless steel housing and IP67 protection withstand harsh industrial environments, while it operates on 10–30 VDC with a PNP normally open 3‑wire output rated to 100 mA, a switching frequency up to 3 kHz, and an operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C. A built‑in LED indicator, short‑circuit protection, reverse polarity protection, and a cable connection simplify installation and enable reliable operation in tight spaces. Typical applications include conveyor systems, packaging equipment, assembly machines, robotic work cells, automated manufacturing, and material handling, and common replacements are BI1-G08-AP6X-H1341, BI1.5-EG08K-AP6X, and BI1-G08K-AN6X-V1131.
