Turck BI5-G18K-AP6X-0.2M-PSG 3M S90 Inductive Sensor

Description:

The Turck BI5-G18K-AP6X-0.2M-PSG3M/S90 inductive proximity sensor is used in industrial metal detection and position sensing systems. Commonly installed in packaging machinery, conveyor systems, assembly equipment, machine tools, and automated production lines requiring compact non-contact object detection. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this part for replacement, retrofit, expansion, and automation system repairs.

Applications:

The Turck BI5-G18K-AP6X-0.2M-PSG3M/S90 is designed for contactless detection of metallic targets in industrial automation environments. The Turck sensor is commonly used in packaging equipment, conveyor transfer systems, robotic assembly cells, material handling systems, and manufacturing machinery where reliable object detection and position feedback are required for PLC-controlled processes. The short M18 threaded barrel design combined with the 0.2 m pigtail cable and quick-disconnect connector makes it ideal for installations with limited mounting depth and tight cable routing requirements.
