M12 Inductive Proximity Sensor, 3mm, PNP-NO, 10-30V, Model BI3U-EG12SK-AP6X | Turck

Turck BI3U-EG12SK-AP6X Inductive Proximity Sensor, M12, 3mm, PNP-NO, uprox Technology

The Turck BI3U-EG12SK-AP6X inductive proximity sensor uses patented uprox technology, offering the same 3 mm sensing range for all metals (iron, steel, aluminum, copper) without correction factors. It operates with a 10 to 30 VDC power supply, compatible with standard 24V industrial control systems. PNP, 3-wire, normally open (NO) configuration. M12 stainless steel threaded barrel housing with an integrated terminal chamber for robust installation without external connectors. Includes sensor and mounting nuts. Made in Germany.

Applications

• Position and presence detection of metal parts in production lines
• Part counting and flow control in industrial automation systems
• Universal metal detection (iron, steel, aluminum, copper) without factor adjustment
• Position monitoring in CNC machines, robots, and conveyor systems
• Applications in demanding environments requiring an M12 stainless steel body
• Direct integration with PLCs and 24VDC industrial controllers via PNP output
