Turck BI12-M30-AD4X-H1141 Inductive Proximity Sensor

Turck BI12-M30-AD4X-H1141 Inductive Proximity Sensor is a shielded, two-wire DC device designed for non‑contact detection of metallic targets and machine-position sensing in industrial automation. It features a 12 mm sensing distance, a normally open output, and operates on 10–65 VDC with a maximum load current of 100 mA and a minimum operating current of 3 mA. The chrome-plated brass, M30 x 1.5 threaded housing supports flush mounting and is paired with an M12 x 1 male connector (H1141) for connection. With IP67 protection and operation from -25°C to +70°C, it provides reverse polarity and short-circuit protection and a load voltage drop of ≤ 5 V. This Turck sensor is well-suited for conveyor systems, packaging machinery, material handling equipment, assembly stations, and automated production lines where reliable metal-object detection or end-of-travel sensing is required in PLC-controlled environments. Common replacements include BI12-M30-AP6X-H1141, BI12-M30-AN6X-H1141, and BI12-M30-VP4X-H1141 for retrofit or upgrades.
