Telemecanique Sensors XS212AAPAL2 Inductive Proximity Sensor 12mm PNP NO
Inductive proximity sensor detects metal at 7 mm, 12–24 V DC, PNP normally-open output, IP68/IP69K sealed plastic housing
- Detects metal targets up to 7 mm away
- Operates on 12 to 24 V DC supply voltage
- Withstands harsh environments with IP68 and IP69K ratings
- Functions reliably from -13 to 185 degrees F
- Provides PNP normally open output with 200 mA load capacity
12 mm Inductive Sensor for DC Automation
The Telemecanique Sensors XS212AAPAL2 is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor built for 12 to 24 V DC systems. It detects metal targets up to 7 mm away with an unshielded 12 mm barrel. A 2 m cable carries a three-wire PNP normally-open output rated for 200 mA load current.
Suits Machine Builders Needing Wash-Down Resistance
The IP68 and IP69K ratings plus NEMA 4X enclosure suit food, beverage and outdoor equipment that sees high-pressure cleaning. Buyers who need a shielded face for flush mounting or an NPN output type should look at alternative models.
Stable Switching Up to 2,500 Hz Under Continuous
The sensor maintains its 2,500 Hz operating frequency across the full -13 °F to 185 °F temperature range. The plastic housing resists coolant and chemical splash while the fixed 200 mA output limit protects the circuit during prolonged actuation cycles.

Questions about this item
What supply voltage does the XS212AAPAL2 sensor require to operate?
The sensor operates on a 12 to 24V DC power supply, drawing a maximum load current of 200mA.
Can this unshielded 12mm sensor be mounted directly against metal brackets without affecting its 7mm sensing range?
No, unshielded sensors require a metal-free zone around the sensing face; mounting flush in metal will reduce the effective detecting distance.
How can I verify the sensor is detecting targets correctly after wiring the 2m cable?
Bring a metal target within 7mm; the yellow output LED should illuminate, confirming the PNP NO output has switched to the high state.
