Threaded-barrel inductive sensor
The Turck NI4-S12-AN6X is a non-flush inductive proximity sensor with a threaded M12 × 1 barrel. It operates on 10…30 VDC and provides a normally-open NPN output through a cable connection. The housing is made from PA12-GF30 plastic and weighs 94 g. It is suited for presence detection in industrial automation environments.
Suitable applications and limits
This sensor fits applications that require a non-flush mount and a 4 mm rated switching distance with NPN logic. It is not intended for flush-mount installations or for circuits that require a PNP output type. Buyers needing a different output function or a flush mounting style should consider other sensor designs.
Deciding specification: rated switching distance
The single specification that determines fit is the 4 mm rated switching distance combined with non-flush mounting. Verify that the target material and mounting arrangement allow reliable detection at this distance before purchase.

Questions about this item
What voltage supply must I already have to run the NI4-S12-AN6X sensor?
The sensor operates on a DC supply between 10 and 30 VDC, so your system must provide voltage within that range.
Will the M12 × 1 threaded barrel fit the mounting holes on my existing brackets?
The housing uses an M12 × 1 thread and is designed for non-flush mounting, so it fits standard M12 clearance holes.
How can I verify the NPN output is switching correctly after installation?
With the target present, measure the output wire; it should pull low toward 0 V, confirming the NO contact is active.
