Turck BI8U-M18E-AP6X-H1141 - IP67 8mm Universal - Industrial Auto Stainless Vibration-Resist - Inductive Sensor

The Turck BI8U-M18E-AP6X-H1141 is a rugged inductive proximity sensor engineered for high-precision non-contact detection of metallic objects in demanding industrial environments. Featuring an M18 stainless steel housing with IP67/IP69K protection, this sensor is built to withstand harsh conditions such as dust, moisture, mechanical shocks, and high-pressure washdowns.

• Sensing Range: 8 mm (for mild steel; reduced for non-ferrous metals)
• Supply Voltage: 10-30 V DC (±10%) with reverse polarity and surge protection
• Output Type: Configurable PNP/NPN transistor (NO/NC), 200 mA max load current
• Housing Material: Stainless steel (316L) with anti-corrosion coating
• Operating Temperature: -25°C to +85°C (-13°F to +185°F)
• Protection Class: IP67/IP69K (dustproof, waterproof, and high-pressure resistant)
• Switching Frequency: Up to 1 kHz for rapid response in dynamic applications
• Connector: M12 4-pin shielded (AP6X variant) with PUR cable (H1141 configuration)
• Certifications: CE, UL, cULus, RoHS, and REACH compliance

The BI8U-M18E-AP6X-H1141 excels in industrial automation scenarios requiring robust sensing solutions:

• Automotive Assembly: Detecting metal components in robotic welding, stamping presses, or conveyor systems
• Packaging Machinery: Verifying the presence of metal lids, cans, or foil seals on high-speed filling lines
• Food & Beverage: Monitoring stainless steel valves, mixers, or conveyor chains in sanitary washdown zones
• Material Handling: Position feedback for automated guided vehicles (AGVs) or palletizing systems
• Heavy Machinery: Ensuring safety interlocks for hydraulic cylinders or rotating equipment

• Extreme Durability: 316L stainless steel housing resists corrosion, chemicals, and mechanical stress
• High Sensing Accuracy: Consistent 8 mm range with minimal hysteresis for reliable detection
• Quick Installation: Pre-wired M12 connectors and threaded design minimize setup time
• Flexible Configuration: Configurable output logic (PNP/NPN) adapts to diverse control systems
• Long Lifespan: Hermetic sealing and robust construction reduce downtime

• Short-Circuit Protection: Automatic shutdown safeguards against wiring faults
• Diagnostic LEDs: Dual-color indicators enable rapid troubleshooting
• Temperature Stability: Maintains performance across extreme conditions
• IO-Link Compatibility: Enables remote parameterization and diagnostics
• Vibration Resistance: Secure M12 connection ensures uninterrupted operation
