Turck NI12U-EM18-AP6X2-H1141 Inductive Proximity Sensor

The TURCK NI12U-EM18-AP6X2-H1141 is a threaded M18 inductive sensor that uses Uprox Factor 1 technology to detect metal targets without contact, delivering reliable metal-object sensing across steel, aluminum, brass, and stainless targets. With a 12 mm nominal sensing distance, 10–30 VDC supply, a PNP normally open output, and a maximum load of 200 mA, it switches up to 1 kHz and uses a 4-pin M12 male connector for non-flush (NONEMBEDDDABBLE) installation in a stainless steel housing (AISI 304). The device is IP68 rated and operates from -30°C to +85°C, featuring a PBT active face and a stainless steel body, making it well-suited for conveyor systems, packaging machinery, robotic work cells, and other automated lines requiring consistent metal object detection and precise machine positioning. Common replacements include TURCK NI12U-M18-AP6X-H1141, TURCK BI10U-EM18-AP6X-H1141, and IFM Electronic IFS240.
