Telemecanique Sensors XS618B1MBL2 Inductive Proximity Sensor 18 mm

SKU CH-T7HS-DCVQS

An 18 mm shielded inductive proximity sensor with a 2 m cable, 8 mm sensing range, 24–240 V AC/DC supply, NC output, and IP68/IP69K protection

  • 8 mm shielded detection for reliable close-range sensing
  • 24–240 V AC/DC supply works with wide voltage sources
  • 2-wire NC output simplifies wiring into existing circuits
  • IP68 and IP69K ratings withstand high-pressure washdown
  • Nickel-plated brass housing resists corrosion in harsh environments

18 mm Inductive Proximity Sensor

The Telemecanique Sensors XS618B1MBL2 is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor designed for industrial automation and machinery applications. Its shielded 18 mm brass housing allows flush mounting in metal environments. The sensor operates on a wide 24 to 240V AC/DC supply, simplifying integration into diverse control panels. It targets maintenance engineers and OEMs needing reliable non-contact metal detection.

8 mm Sensing Range with 2-Wire Output

This sensor offers a maximum detecting distance of 8 mm, suitable for close-range position sensing of ferrous targets. The 2-wire NC output circuit switches loads up to 200 mA, compatible with PLC inputs and small relays. Operating frequency reaches 25 Hz on AC and 1000 Hz on DC, providing adequate speed for conveyor and packaging lines. The 2 m pre-wired cable eliminates the need for separate connectors.

IP68 and IP69K Sealed for Wash-Down Environments

The nickel-plated brass case meets NEMA 4X, IP68 and IP69K ratings, resisting high-pressure, high-temperature wash-downs common in food and beverage processing. Operating temperature spans -13 to 158 degrees F, covering cold storage to engine-compartment heat. The 41 mm overall length fits tight mounting brackets. Buyers needing longer range, PNP/NPN logic outputs, or connectorised cables should consider other models.

Questions about this item

Will the 18 mm barrel and 24 to 240 V AC/DC supply work with my existing 18 mm mounting bracket and 24 V DC control voltage?

Yes, the 18 mm cylindrical body fits standard 18 mm brackets and the 24 to 240 V AC/DC range covers 24 V DC supplies directly.

How can I verify the 2-wire NC output is switching correctly at up to 8 mm detecting distance after wiring?

Apply power, bring a metal target within 8 mm, and confirm the load circuit opens; the yellow LED on the cable will change state when the output switches.

Does the 2 m pre-wired cable come terminated, and is a separate mounting nut included?

The sensor ships with a 2 m integral cable ready to connect; a mounting nut for the M18 thread is included in the box.
