Turck Si3-5-K10-AN7 Slot Sensor

The Turck SI3.5-K10-AN7 Slot Sensor is a compact inductive slot detector that non-contactly senses metallic components through a 3.5 mm sensing slot, making it ideal for conveyor systems, assembly machinery, packaging equipment, and automated production lines where rapid, reliable part presence is crucial. It operates from 10–30 VDC with an NPN normally open (NO) output and a cable connection, and is designed for slot-mount installation. The housing is plastic (PBT-GF30-V0) and the unit carries an IP67 rating, temperature tolerance from −25°C to +70°C, and is built for rugged industrial environments. Common replacements include Turck SI3.5-K10-AP6X, SI3.5-K10-AP6X/S258, and SI3.5-K10-AP6X-0.5-RS4T/S258 for retrofit or expansion. In use across conveyor systems, stamping equipment, material handling setups, packaging machinery, and general automation tasks, this sensor provides dependable non-contact detection of small metallic parts to improve process accuracy and throughput.
