Industrial inductive sensor for metal detection
The Turck BI5U-M18-AN6X-H1141 is a flush-mount inductive sensor with a threaded M18 × 1 barrel designed for industrial automation. It detects all metals at a rated switching distance of 5 mm with Factor 1 consistency. The NPN normally-open output suits PLC inputs in manufacturing and process control environments.
Verify voltage and connector compatibility
Confirm the control system supplies DC voltage between 10 and 30 VDC for the three-wire circuit. The housing uses a chrome-plated brass M12 × 1 male connector so the mating cable or distribution box must match this interface. Ensure the mounting location accommodates an M18 × 1 thread and allows flush installation in metal.
Stable output under continuous operation
The uprox®+ design maintains consistent switching performance during extended duty cycles. High switching frequency supports rapid part detection without signal degradation. IP68 protection and resistance to magnetic fields prevent false triggers in harsh conditions. The extended temperature range and metal housing sustain reliable operation through thermal cycling and vibration.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and what else do I need to install the BI5U-M18-AN6X-H1141?
The box contains one sensor. You will need a compatible M12 × 1 cable or cordset and a 10…30 VDC power supply to complete the installation.
How do I choose between the available versions of this M18 sensor?
This model is a single version: flush-mount, M18 × 1 thread, NPN normally-open output, M12 connector, factor 1 for all metals, IP68 rated.
What does the 5 mm rated switching distance mean when the sensor is mounted in a machine?
It detects any metal target at up to 5 mm when mounted flush in the housing, with factor 1 so the distance is the same for steel, aluminium or copper.
