Turck BI20R-Q14-AP6X2-H1141 Inductive Proximity Switch

Turck BI20R-Q14-AP6X2-H1141 is an inductive ring proximity sensor designed for non-contact metal detection in industrial automation. Used in conveyor systems, packaging lines, and automated assembly equipment, it detects metallic objects passing through its 20 mm sensing ring to support part counting, wire break detection, and small component monitoring in high-speed production environments. Key specifications include an operating voltage range of 10–30 VDC, a PNP normally open output, and an M12 electrical connection, all housed in a rectangular Q14 enclosure with IP67 protection. The sensor features a glass fiber reinforced plastic (PBT) housing and a operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C, making it suitable for low-frequency detection applications in demanding environments. Common replacements include Turck BI15R-Q14-AP6X2-H1141, Turck BI30R-Q14-AP6X2-H1141, and IFM IGS204 inductive ring sensors.
