Telemecanique Sensors XS108B3NAM8 Inductive Proximity Sensor 8 mm

SKU CH-VSWY-TVCT2

Shielded 8 mm inductive proximity sensor detects metal at 2 mm with 12–24 V DC supply, 3-wire NPN NO output, M8 connector and IP65/IP67-rated 303 stainless steel body

  • 8 mm shielded sensing fits tight machine spaces
  • 2 mm max detection gives precise close-range triggering
  • 12–24 V DC supply works with standard industrial power
  • 3-pin M8 connector enables quick plug-and-play wiring
  • IP65 and IP67 ratings resist water jets and temporary immersion

Telemecanique 8 mm Inductive Sensor

This Telemecanique Sensors XS108B3NAM8 is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor with an 8 mm barrel diameter. It detects metal targets up to 2 mm away using a shielded sensing face. The unit operates on 12 to 24 V DC and provides a 3-wire NPN normally open output. Its 303 stainless steel housing carries IP65 and IP67 ratings for industrial environments.

Check Voltage, Connector and Output Type

Verify that your control system supplies 12 to 24 V DC and can accept a 3-wire NPN normally open signal. The sensor terminates in a 3-pin M8 connector, so ensure the matching cordset or cable is available. Confirm the 2 mm sensing range suits the target distance and that the 2.5 kHz switching frequency meets the application speed requirements.

IP65 IP67 Sealing and Low Power Draw

The stainless steel body rated IP65 and IP67 resists dust ingress and water jets during normal operation. Current consumption stays within a 200 mA maximum load, limiting heat rise inside the enclosure. Operating temperature spans -13 to 158 degrees F, so the sensor maintains stable performance without active cooling in typical factory conditions.

Questions about this item

Does the sensor come with a mounting bracket or cable, or must they be purchased separately?

The sensor has a 3-pin M8 connector, so a compatible M8 cable is required for wiring. The stainless-steel body is threaded for direct mounting; no bracket is included.

Which output type suits a sinking-input PLC card — the NPN or a PNP version?

This model provides a 3-wire NPN (sinking) output, making it the correct choice for sinking-input modules.

What does the 2 mm sensing distance mean when the sensor is mounted flush in metal?

The shielded design allows flush mounting in metal while maintaining the rated 2 mm detecting distance on ferrous targets.
