M18 inductive sensor for industrial detection
The Turck NI10-G18SK-Y1X 40161 is a chrome-plated brass proximity switch built for non-flush mounting in automated machinery and process equipment. Its threaded M18 × 1 barrel fits standard sensor ports and the terminal chamber allows direct field wiring without separate connectors. This unit suits maintenance engineers and panel builders who need a durable metal-housed sensor for presence detection.
Rated switching distance 10 mm
The single figure that determines fit is the 10 mm rated switching distance, which defines the maximum reliable detection range for ferrous targets. The sensor operates on a nominal 8.2 VDC supply and provides a NAMUR output conforming to DIN EN 60947-5-6, making it compatible with approved intrinsic safety barriers. No other sensing range or voltage option applies to this model.
Stable output under continuous operation
Under sustained load the NAMUR current-output signal remains consistent because the two-wire DC circuit draws only the switching-state current defined by the standard. The metal housing and chrome plating resist mechanical wear and coolant exposure, while the terminal chamber maintains secure conductor contact over long duty cycles. The 86 g weight reflects the solid brass construction that supports this reliability.

Questions about this item
What does the 10 mm rated switching distance mean once the sensor is installed?
The sensor will reliably detect a standard steel target when it comes within 10 mm of the sensing face.
How does the DIN EN 60947-5-6 NAMUR output cap the signal in practice?
The NAMUR output provides a low-current signal change that is intrinsically safe and requires a compatible NAMUR amplifier or isolator to convert to a standard logic level.
What does the M18 × 1 threaded barrel need to fit or mount?
It requires a clearance hole or tapped thread of M18 × 1 and, being non-flush mountable, needs free space around the sensing face for reliable operation.
