Turck BI7-Q08-AP6X2 Inductive Proximity Sensor

Turck BI7-Q08-AP6X2 is a compact inductive proximity sensor (Q08 series) that detects metal targets with a 7 mm sensing distance in non-contact fashion. It provides a PNP normally open, 3-wire output from a 10–30 VDC supply up to 200 mA, with a 500 Hz switching frequency, and a flush-mountable reinforced thermoplastic Q08 housing for tight installations. The IP67-rated sensor operates from -25°C to +70°C and is designed for metal object detection and machine-position sensing in conveyors, packaging lines, robotics, and other automated production environments; it supports cable or connector variants depending on model configuration and includes short-circuit and reverse polarity protection plus LED indication. It complies with CE, IEC, and RoHS standards, and a common replacement is BI7-Q08-AP6X2-V2131.
