Industrial proximity sensor for machine builders
The Turck BI5-M18-AD4X-H1141 is a flush-mount inductive sensor with a threaded M18 × 1 brass barrel. It detects metal targets at a rated switching distance of 5 mm and provides a normally-open output through a 2-wire DC circuit. An M12 × 1 male connector allows quick integration into existing control wiring.
Stable switching across the full voltage range
The sensor operates reliably from 10 VDC up to 65 VDC without derating its sensing distance. Chrome-plated CuZn housing resists coolant splash and mechanical abrasion on the production line. The 2-wire design keeps voltage drop low even during continuous cycling at high frequency.
Low thermal load and silent solid-state operation
With no moving contacts the device generates negligible heat and emits no acoustic noise during normal use. Current draw stays minimal because the output stage only conducts when the target is present. The compact 50 g metal body dissipates what little power is produced directly into the mounting bracket.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the M18 sensor generate when powered continuously at 65 VDC?
The 2-wire DC design draws minimal current at 10…65 VDC, so self-heating stays negligible during all-day operation.
What mating cable or connector must I already have to wire the M12 male plug?
You need an M12 × 1 female cordset with the correct pin-out for a 2-wire NO sensor.
Will the 5 mm switching distance still trigger reliably if I mount the sensor flush in a thicker metal bracket?
Flush mounting in metal is the rated condition; the 5 mm distance is specified for that installation.
