Industrial inductive sensor

The Turck Bi15U-Q20-AN6X2-H1141 is a rectangular inductive proximity sensor built for industrial automation and machine monitoring. It provides a rated switching distance of 15 mm with a factor 1 response across all metals. The NPN normally open output suits standard PLC input modules. The housing measures 68 x 40 x 20 mm and weighs 90 g.

M12 connector and uprox+ features

The sensor terminates in an M12 x 1 male connector for quick installation in standard cordsets. The uprox+ design delivers factor 1 sensing on every metal without correction factors. It also resists magnetic fields from welding equipment or large motors. The extended temperature range and high switching frequency support demanding cycle times.

DC voltage and flush mounting limits

Operation is limited to DC supplies up to 30 VDC despite the 1030 VDC rating noted in the supplier data. The flush mounting requirement means the active face must sit level with surrounding metal, reducing the effective range if recessed. The plastic PBT-GF30-V0 housing resists chemicals but cannot withstand heavy mechanical impact. Buyers needing AC supply or non-flush mounting should select a different model.

Questions about this item

How often should the M12 connector be checked or replaced on this inductive sensor?

The M12 × 1 male connector is a sealed industrial interface with no scheduled replacement interval; inspect it during routine maintenance for corrosion or mechanical damage.

What limits the continuous switching frequency of this 15 mm sensor?

The sensor is rated for high switching frequency operation; the first practical limit under sustained use is the 1030 VDC supply and the NPN output's current-handling capacity.

How much heat does the PBT-GF30-V0 housing dissipate when the sensor runs all day?

The plastic housing remains within its extended temperature range during continuous duty; no active cooling is required and the NPN output stage generates minimal heat.
