Turck BI10-G30-AN6X Inductive Proximity Sensor

The Turck BI10-G30-AN6X is a shielded inductive proximity sensor that detects metal targets at 10 mm with a 3‑wire DC NPN normally open output, suitable for conveyor systems, packaging lines, assembly equipment, stamping presses, and material handling where reliable non-contact sensing is required. It operates from 10–30 VDC, draws up to 200 mA, and switches at up to 0.5 kHz, with a threaded M30 x 1.5 barrel, chrome-plated brass housing, and PA12-GF30 active face for durability in industrial environments. The device is flush‑mountable, IP67 rated, and features a 2 m integral cable, reverse polarity and short‑circuit protection, a Yellow LED indicator, and an operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C. Common replacements include BI10-G30-AP6X, BI10-G30-RP6X, and BI10-G30-AN6X-H1141 for extended compatibility in metal-object detection and machine-position sensing within PLC-controlled automation.
