Inductive Proximity Sensor 8 mm
The Telemecanique Sensors XS108BLPAL5 is an inductive cylindrical proximity sensor designed for industrial automation tasks. It detects metallic objects at a maximum distance of 1.5 mm using a shielded sensing face. The unit operates on a 12 to 24V DC supply and provides a 3-wire PNP normally open output. Its nickel-plated brass housing measures 41 mm in length.
3 000 Hz Switching Frequency Limit
The sensor’s operating frequency of 3 000 Hz sets the practical speed limit for reliable detection cycles. Applications requiring faster pulse rates will exceed this interface capability and risk missed signals. The 5 m pre-wired cable fixes the installation reach without connector options. Output load is capped at 50 mA, restricting direct drive to low-current control inputs only.
IP67 and NEMA 4X Environmental Headroom
The IP67 rating ensures protection against dust ingress and temporary water immersion during washdown procedures. NEMA 4X certification adds corrosion resistance for harsh chemical or outdoor exposure. Operating temperature spans -13 to 158 degrees F, covering most indoor and unheated outdoor environments. Extreme heat beyond 158 degrees F or continuous high-pressure steam cleaning fall outside the rated envelope.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 8 mm shielded version or a different diameter for my mounting space?
The 8 mm shielded housing allows flush mounting in metal with a 1.5 mm sensing range; select this diameter when the mounting hole and target distance match those figures.
What does the 3,000 Hz operating frequency mean for detection speed on my line?
At 3,000 Hz the sensor can register up to 3,000 target passages per second, suitable for fast cycling machinery within the 1.5 mm range.
How does the 12 to 24 V DC supply and PNP NO output affect wiring to my PLC?
Connect the brown wire to 12–24 V DC, blue to 0 V, and black to the PLC input; the PNP NO output switches the load to positive when a target enters the 1.5 mm zone.
