18 mm Inductive Proximity Sensor
The Telemecanique Sensors XS618B1PBM12 is an 18 mm cylindrical inductive proximity sensor designed for industrial automation tasks. It detects metal targets at distances up to 8 mm using a shielded sensing face. The unit operates on a 12 to 24V DC supply and provides a 3-wire PNP output with a normally closed switching logic. It suits machine builders and maintenance engineers who need reliable presence detection in compact spaces.
Sustained Operation at 1 000 Hz
The sensor runs at an operating frequency of 1 000 Hz, allowing consistent detection during continuous, high-speed production cycles. Its maximum current load is rated at 200mA, supporting stable signal delivery to PLC inputs or relay coils over long shifts. The wide operating temperature range from -13 to 158 degrees Fahrenheit ensures performance stays steady whether the line runs in a cold store or beside a heating stage. No thermal derating or duty-cycle limits are specified in the data.
Nickel-Plated Brass Housing with M12 Connector
The case is made from nickel-plated brass, giving mechanical strength and corrosion resistance in harsh workshop environments. It carries NEMA 4X, IP67 and IP69K ratings, so it withstands washdown, coolant spray and temporary immersion without ingress. A 4-pin M12 connector provides a secure, industry-standard electrical connection that resists vibration loosening. The overall body length is 74 mm, fitting standard 18 mm mounting brackets and blocks.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 12 to 24V DC inductive sensor generate during continuous operation?
The sensor draws up to 200 mA at 12 to 24V DC, so power dissipation stays below 5 W and heat is minimal in normal use.
What power supply and cable must I already have for the 4-pin M12 connector?
You need a 12 to 24V DC source and a 4-pin M12 cable to match the sensor's connector and voltage range.
Will the 18 mm nickel-plated brass body fit the same mounting holes as my older 18 mm sensors?
Yes, the 18 mm diameter and 74 mm length match the standard 18 mm form factor used by many legacy sensors.
