M8 inductive sensor for flush mounting
The Turck BI1.5-EG08K-AP6X-V1131 is a stainless-steel proximity sensor with a threaded M8 x 1 barrel designed for flush installation in metal. It operates on 10 to 30 VDC and provides a PNP normally-open output through a 3-wire DC circuit. The 1.5 mm rated switching distance suits close-range metal detection in automation and machine-building tasks.
Practical limits of the DC 3-wire interface
The sensor requires a DC supply between 10 and 30 VDC and delivers a PNP switching signal compatible with standard PLC inputs. Rated switching distance is fixed at 1.5 mm, so the target must approach within this range for reliable actuation. The M8 x 1 male connector carries only power and signal; no additional diagnostic or communication channels are present. Flush mounting demands a metal-free zone around the sensing face to avoid false triggers.
Stainless steel housing
The housing uses 1.4427 stainless steel rated for harsh industrial environments and weighs 13 g. An M8 x 1 male connector allows quick disconnect without tools, simplifying replacement and reducing downtime. Threaded barrel mounting provides secure mechanical retention in tapped holes or with a locknut. The compact form factor fits tight machine cavities where larger sensors cannot be accommodated.

Questions about this item
Which version of the Turck BI1.5-EG08K-AP6X-V1131 sensor should I choose for my application?
This model is a single version with a 1.5 mm rated switching distance, PNP NO output, 10-30 VDC supply, and an M8×1 male connector. Select it when those exact parameters match your machine requirements.
What does the 1.5 mm rated switching distance mean once the sensor is installed in a real machine?
It will reliably detect a standard steel target when the target face is 1.5 mm or closer to the sensing face; flush mounting in metal is supported, so the full 1.5 mm range is usable in that configuration.
How does the M8×1 connector interface cap the sensor's performance in practice?
The 3-pin M8×1 male connector limits the wiring to a standard DC 3-wire PNP circuit (10-30 VDC, NO), so the sensor can only be used with control inputs that accept that exact signal type and voltage range.
