18 mm Inductive Proximity Sensor
The Telemecanique Sensors XS518B1DAL2 is a shielded cylindrical sensor designed for industrial automation and machinery monitoring. It operates on a 12 to 48V DC supply with a two-wire output circuit, making it suitable for integration into existing control systems. The nickel-plated brass housing provides durability in harsh environments.
Replaces older limit switches
This sensor upgrades mechanical limit switches that wear out from physical contact and contamination. The jump is worth it when maintenance intervals are costly or when oil, coolant, or debris cause false triggers on exposed contacts. Solid-state switching eliminates bounce and extends service life significantly.
5 mm sensing range with IP68 and IP69K sealing
The sensor reliably detects metal targets up to 5 mm away at a 3,000 Hz switching frequency, handling high-speed counting or positioning tasks. It runs out of range for targets beyond 5 mm or non-metallic materials, and the 100 mA load limit restricts direct control of larger actuators without a relay.

Questions about this item
What size mounting hole does the 18 mm sensor need?
The sensor body is 18 mm in diameter and 41 mm long, so it fits a standard M18 threaded hole or bracket.
How do I wire the 2-wire DC output correctly?
Connect the two cable leads in series with the load across a 12 to 48 V DC supply; the sensor switches the load directly with no separate signal wire.
When should I replace the sensor if the cable jacket degrades?
The cable is rated for -13 to 158 °F and IP68/IP69K sealing; replace it if the jacket cracks, water enters, or the 5 mm sensing range becomes unreliable.
