Industrial Proximity Sensor
The Turck Ni5-Q18-AP6X is a rectangular inductive sensor with a rated switching distance of 5 mm and a PNP normally open output. It operates on a 10 to 30 VDC supply using a three-wire DC cable connection. The housing uses PBT-GF30-V0 plastic and measures 29 x 18 x 18 mm. It is designed for non-flush mounting in automation and control applications.
Verify Voltage and Mounting
Before ordering confirm that the control system provides a DC supply between 10 and 30 volts and accepts a PNP sinking output. The sensor requires a non-flush mounting arrangement so ensure the installation point allows the active face to sit clear of surrounding metal. Check that the cable entry and rectangular footprint suit the available space and cable routing.
Operating Conditions
The plastic housing and epoxy-sealed construction protect the electronics in typical industrial environments. Power draw is limited to the low current required by the 3-wire DC circuit so heat generation is minimal. The unit operates silently with no moving parts and the cable connection avoids connector-related voltage drops. Weight is 68 grams.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box with the Ni5-Q18-AP6X and what must be purchased separately?
The box contains one inductive sensor with a fitted cable. No mounting hardware, connectors or separate power supply are included.
Which version of the Ni5-Q18-AP6X should be chosen for a non-flush mounting hole?
This model is built for non-flush mounting with a rectangular 29 x 18 x 18 mm housing and a 5 mm rated switching distance.
What does the 5 mm rated switching distance mean when the sensor is installed in a machine?
It will reliably detect a standard steel target when the target face is up to 5 mm from the active front face.
