Telemecanique 12 mm Inductive Sensor
The Telemecanique Sensors XS612B1MBL2 is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor built for industrial automation. Its 12 mm diameter and shielded construction suit machine-tool and conveyor applications where reliable non-contact detection is required. The nickel-plated brass housing resists coolant and wash-down exposure in harsh production environments.
4 mm Sensing Range with 24–240 V Supply
The sensor detects metal targets up to 4 mm away and operates on a wide 24 to 240 V AC/DC supply, simplifying integration across mixed-voltage control panels. AC switching runs at 25 Hz while DC switching reaches 1000 Hz, so the unit handles moderate-speed counting but not high-frequency pulse trains. The two-wire normally-closed output delivers up to 200 mA load current.
IP68 and IP69K Sealed for Wash-Down Zones
The NEMA 4X rating plus IP68 and IP69K ingress protection make this sensor the right choice where high-pressure, high-temperature cleaning cycles are routine. The 2 m integral cable eliminates separate connector assemblies that can leak. Operating temperature spans -13 °F to 158 °F, covering unheated factories and engine-compartment installations alike.

Questions about this item
Will the 24 to 240 V AC/DC supply range let me keep my existing 24 V DC control circuit?
Yes, the sensor accepts 24 V DC within its 24 to 240 V AC/DC range, so it can stay on your current 24 V DC supply without changes.
How can I confirm the shielded 12 mm sensor is detecting at its 4 mm rated distance after installation?
Bring a standard steel target to 4 mm from the sensing face; the NC output will open, and the load (up to 200 mA) will switch off, proving correct operation.
Does the 2 m pre-wired cable and nickel-plated brass body mean I only need a mounting bracket to install it?
The sensor ships with a 2 m cable and a threaded nickel-plated brass barrel; you only need a suitable M12 mounting bracket or nut for mechanical fixing.
