Cylindrical nickel-plated brass inductive sensor with 2m cable

Telemecanique Sensors

Telemecanique Sensors XS208BLPAL2 Inductive Proximity Sensor 8mm PNP NO

SKU CH-PF51-QAR7N

An unshielded inductive proximity sensor detecting metal at 2.5 mm with a PNP normally-open output over a 2 m cable, rated IP67 and NEMA 4X for 12 to 24 V DC operation from -13 to 158 °F

  • 8 mm unshielded detection with 2.5 mm range
  • 3-wire PNP normally-open output for direct PLC wiring
  • 12–24 V DC supply fits standard control voltage
  • IP67 and NEMA 4X rating resists wash-down and dust
  • Nickel-plated brass body withstands –13 °F to 158 °F operation

Sensor Overview

The Telemecanique Sensors XS208BLPAL2 is an inductive cylindrical proximity sensor built for industrial automation and machinery monitoring. It targets engineers and technicians who need reliable non-contact detection of metal objects in harsh environments.

Detection Specification

The sensor offers a maximum detecting distance of 2.5 mm with an operating frequency of 3,000 Hz. It requires a 12 to 24V DC power supply and provides a 3-wire PNP normally open output rated for a maximum current load of 100mA.

Installation Notes

A 2 m cable is permanently attached for direct wiring into control cabinets or junction boxes. The nickel-plated brass body measures 41 mm in length and carries an IP67 rating alongside NEMA 4X protection. The unshielded design demands careful mounting to avoid interference from surrounding metal structures.

Questions about this item

What does the 8 mm figure mean once the sensor is installed?

The 8 mm refers to the barrel diameter of the cylindrical housing, not the sensing distance; the actual maximum detecting distance is 2.5 mm.

What interface does the PNP NO output use and what does it cap in practice?

The sensor uses a three-wire PNP normally open output with a maximum current load of 100 mA and operates on 12 to 24 V DC.

What does it physically need to fit or mount in a machine?

It requires a mounting hole for an 8 mm diameter unshielded nickel-plated brass barrel that is 41 mm long and connects via a 2 m cable.
