Turck GmbH BI1-G08-Y1 Inductive Proximity Sensor

The Turck BI1-G08-Y1 inductive proximity sensor detects metal objects without contact in intrinsically safe industrial environments, delivering reliable presence sensing for hazardous-area process control and equipment automation. Its stainless steel M8 × 28 mm threaded barrel supports flush (embeddable) mounting, IP67 protection, and a NAMUR 2-wire output with a rated operating voltage of 8.2 VDC (NAMUR), via a cable connection, and an operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C. With a 1 mm sensing distance, it is suitable for chemical processing plants, oil and gas facilities, pharmaceutical manufacturing, conveyors, packaging lines, and material handling where intrinsic safety and precise metal detection are required. Common replacements include BI1-G08K-Y1, BI1.5-EG08-Y1, and BI1-G08-AN6X-H1341.
