Turck M5 inductive sensor NPN
The Turck Bi1-EG05-AN6X 4609840 is a flush-mount inductive proximity switch with a threaded M5 × 0.5 stainless steel barrel. It provides a normally open NPN output on a three-wire DC circuit for presence detection in automation tasks. The sensor suits electricians and maintenance engineers who need a compact metal-housing switch for tight machine spaces.
Check voltage and wiring before fitting
Verify that the control system supplies a DC voltage compatible with the sensor's 1030 VDC rating and that the input module accepts an NPN sinking signal. Confirm the cable length reaches the termination point without splicing and that the mounting hole matches the M5 × 0.5 thread. The switch is designed for flush installation in metal.
Stainless barrel and cable tail
Housing grade 1.4427 stainless steel resists coolant and cleaning agents in food or packaging lines. The integral cable exit removes the need for a separate connector but fixes the lead orientation, so route the cable before tightening the lock nuts. At 32 g the unit adds negligible mass to moving brackets.
