Industrial proximity sensor
The Telemecanique Sensors XS612B1PAM12 is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor built for industrial automation. It detects metal targets at distances up to 4 mm using a shielded 12 mm barrel. The unit operates on 12 to 48V DC supply and provides a 3-wire PNP normally open output. An M12 4-pin connector simplifies wiring in control panels and machine frames.
Shielded mounting and rugged sealing
Shielded construction allows flush installation in metal brackets without sensing interference. The nickel-plated brass housing meets NEMA 4X, IP67 and IP69K ratings for wash-down and high-pressure environments. Operating temperature spans -13 to 158 degrees F. A 2,500 Hz switching frequency supports fast cycle times on conveyors and packaging lines.
Connector-ready integration
The 4-pin M12 connector enables quick-disconnect cabling without soldering or terminal blocks. This reduces installation time and simplifies sensor replacement during maintenance. The 200 mA maximum load drives PLC inputs or small relays directly. The 62 mm overall length fits standard sensor mounts in tight machine spaces.

Questions about this item
How close can the sensor reliably detect metal at its maximum 4 mm range?
The shielded design allows a 4 mm detecting distance on standard targets, with output switching at up to 2 500 Hz.
Will the nickel-plated brass housing and IP67/IP69K ratings handle continuous wash-down heat?
Rated for -13 °F to 158 °F operation, the sealed brass case resists high-pressure water and thermal cycling without derating.
Does my controller need a PNP input and a 4-pin M12 cable to use this sensor?
Yes — the 3-wire PNP output requires a compatible PNP input, and the 4-pin M12 connector needs a matching cordset for 12–48 V DC supply.
