Turck BI15-K40SR-FZ3X2 Inductive Proximity Sensor

Description:

The Turck BI15-K40SR-FZ3X2 Multi-Prox Inductive Proximity Sensor is used in industrial automation systems for non-contact metallic object detection and machine position sensing. Commonly installed in conveyor systems, packaging machinery, transfer lines, material handling equipment, and automated production systems requiring universal AC/DC powered sensing devices. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this part for replacement, retrofit, automation upgrades, or sensor failure repair in industrial control applications.

Applications:

The Turck BI15-K40SR-FZ3X2 is commonly used for part presence detection, end-of-travel monitoring, machine positioning, and product verification in PLC-controlled manufacturing environments. Its smooth Ø40 mm barrel housing and programmable switching function make it suitable for conveyor systems, packaging equipment, transfer systems, and automated machinery where flexible installation options and universal AC/DC operation are required. The terminal chamber with axial and radial cable entry options simplifies installation in confined industrial locations.
