Telemecanique Sensors XS612B1PBM12 Inductive Proximity Sensor 12 mm
Shielded inductive proximity sensor detects metal at 4 mm, operates on 12 to 48 V DC, and withstands IP67 and IP69K environments
- 12 mm cylindrical sensor fits tight machine spaces
- 4 mm shielded detection ignores nearby metal interference
- 12–48 V DC supply works with common control voltages
- IP67 and IP69K sealing survives wash-down and immersion
- 13 °F to 158 °F range handles cold storage and hot processes
12 mm Inductive Proximity Sensor
The Telemecanique Sensors XS612B1PBM12 is a shielded cylindrical sensor designed for industrial automation. It detects metal targets at a maximum distance of 4 mm using a 3-wire PNP output circuit. The unit operates on a 12 to 48V DC supply and features an NC output mode for fail-safe wiring. Its nickel-plated brass body carries IP67 and IP69K ratings for harsh environments.
M12 Connector Installation
Electrical connection uses a standard 4-pin M12 plug that locks with a quarter-turn, allowing quick replacement without rewiring the loom. The 62 mm overall length fits tight machine frames, but the shielded face requires a flush mount cut-out; a non-flush recess will reduce the 4 mm sensing range. Verify the 200 mA load limit matches the controller input to avoid nuisance trips.
2 500 Hz Switching Limit
The 2 500 Hz operating frequency suits high-speed counting or presence verification on conveyors and cam drives. Faster target passages will exceed the sensor response and cause missed pulses. The -13 °F to 158 °F temperature range covers most indoor and sheltered outdoor lines, though extreme cold may slow response marginally. No analogue or IO-Link data is available from this discrete output.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the sensor is detecting correctly after installation?
With power applied between 12 and 48V DC, the PNP output will switch when a metal target enters the 4 mm range; a multimeter on the signal pin will show the state change at up to 2 500 Hz.
What comes in the box and what must I source separately?
The sensor body with its 4-pin M12 connector is supplied; a compatible M12 cable or cordset and a 12–48V DC power supply are not included.
Which output logic should I choose for a fail-safe circuit?
This version has NC (normally closed) output, so the circuit opens when metal is detected — select it when you need the signal to drop on target presence.
