M30×1.5 Inductive Sensor for Metal Detection

The Turck BI15U-EM30WD-AP6X is a flush-mount inductive sensor with a 15 mm rated switching distance. It operates on 10…30 VDC and provides a PNP normally-open output via a cable connection. The stainless-steel V4A housing suits harsh industrial environments.

IP69K Protection and Magnetic Field Immunity

The sensor meets IP69K and withstands temperatures from -40 °C to +100 °C. A special double-lip seal resists 10 bar pressure and common acid or alkaline cleaning agents. Factor 1 for all metals ensures consistent switching on steel, aluminium, brass and copper without correction factors.

15 mm Switching Distance with Uprox+ Technology

The 15 mm range covers typical presence and position tasks on M30 mounting points. Uprox+ design maintains the full distance on all metals while suppressing interference from strong magnetic fields. Builders needing longer range or non-flush mounting should select a different model.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 15 mm flush-mount version or a non-flush alternative for my M30×1.5 threaded hole?

This sensor is the flush-mount version with a 15 mm rated switching distance; a non-flush model would need a larger mounting clearance and typically offers a longer range.

What does the 15 mm rated switching distance mean when the sensor is installed in a real machine?

It will reliably detect a standard steel target at 15 mm when mounted flush in metal; the Factor 1 specification means the same distance applies to all metals without correction factors.

What does the 10–30 VDC PNP cable connection cap in practice?

The 3-wire PNP output switches the positive supply to the load, so the maximum load voltage equals your supply voltage up to 30 VDC and the cable length adds series resistance.
