Turck M12 Inductive Sensor PNP
The Turck BI2-G12SK-AP6X 46360 is a flush-mount inductive proximity sensor with a threaded M12 × 1 brass barrel. It operates on 10…30 VDC three-wire DC supply and provides a normally open PNP switching output. The 2 mm rated switching distance suits close-range metal detection in industrial automation tasks. Chrome-plated housing resists wear in demanding environments.
Check voltage and mounting before ordering
Verify that your control system supplies 10 to 30 VDC and accepts a PNP normally open signal. Confirm the M12 × 1 thread matches the mounting hole and that a flush installation is possible. The terminal chamber requires suitable cable glands or connectors not included in the pack. Ensure the 2 mm sensing range meets the application target distance.
Ideal for metal detection in tight spaces
This sensor suits engineers needing a compact M12 metal sensor with PNP output for PLC input cards. Buyers requiring longer sensing ranges, NPN logic, or non-flush mounting should look at alternative models. Applications needing analog output or higher temperature ratings are not served by this device. The 68 g weight allows easy integration on moving arms.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and what must be purchased separately?
The box contains one Turck BI2-G12SK-AP6X inductive sensor with M12 × 1 threaded barrel and terminal chamber. Mounting nuts, cables and any mating connectors are not included and must be sourced separately.
Which version should I choose for a 10…30 VDC PNP normally-open application?
This single model 46360 is a 3-wire DC PNP sensor with NO contact function rated for 10…30 VDC, so it covers the stated voltage range and output type without further variants.
What does the 2 mm rated switching distance mean in a real flush-mounted installation?
With flush mounting in metal the sensor will reliably detect a standard steel target at 2 mm; the chrome-plated brass barrel and terminal-chamber connection are designed for that mounting style.
