Purpose-built inductive sensor

The Turck Bi5-P18SK-Y1X 40360 is a flush-mount inductive sensor with a threaded M18 × 1 barrel made from PA12-GF30-V0 plastic. It delivers a rated switching distance of 5 mm and operates on a nominal 8.2 VDC supply using a DC 2-wire NAMUR output compliant with DIN EN 60947-5-6. The unit weighs 68 g and originates from Germany.

Integration into a control system

The sensor terminates in a terminal chamber for direct wiring without a separate connector. Its NAMUR output requires a compatible intrinsically safe barrier or isolated switching amplifier to interface with standard PLC inputs. The plastic housing resists corrosion and suits flush mounting in metal structures, freeing the installer from shielding or clearance concerns associated with non-flush types.

Fit for purpose

This sensor suits engineers specifying NAMUR-compliant presence detection in hazardous or harsh environments where a plastic M18 housing is required. Buyers needing a PNP or NPN DC 3-wire output, a longer switching distance, or a metal-bodied sensor should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

What is the rated switching distance for this M18 inductive sensor?

The rated switching distance is 5 mm, suitable for flush mounting applications.

How much power does the sensor draw during continuous operation?

It operates at a nominal 8.2 VDC as a DC 2-wire NAMUR device with a terminal chamber connection.

What mounting hardware or mating connector is required to install this sensor?

The M18 × 1 threaded barrel mounts flush; wiring connects directly to the built-in terminal chamber.
