Rectangular inductive sensor, 30 mm range

The Turck BI30U-CP40-AP6X2 is a rectangular proximity switch with a 30 mm rated switching distance. Its active face can be oriented in nine directions for flexible mounting. The housing uses PBT-GF30-V0 plastic and carries an IP68 protection rating. High-luminance corner LEDs show supply voltage and switching state from any angle.

Suited for flush-mount metal detection.

Factor 1 sensing gives equal range on all metals without correction factors. Magnetic-field resistance allows use near welding equipment or strong magnets. The 1030 VDC three-wire PNP output fits standard DC control circuits. Buyers needing non-flush mounting or a different output type should look at other models.

30 mm switching distance decides fit

The single specification that determines whether this sensor fits the application is the 30 mm rated switching distance. It defines the maximum reliable detection gap for a flush-mounted rectangular housing measuring 114 x 40 x 40 mm. If the machine layout requires a longer or shorter range, a different sensor must be chosen.

Questions about this item

What voltage supply do I need to power the 1030 VDC PNP output on this BI30U-CP40-AP6X2 sensor?

Connect a DC source within the 10-30 VDC range to the terminal chamber; the PNP output switches the load to the positive rail when metal enters the 30 mm sensing zone.

Will the rectangular 114 x 40 x 40 mm housing fit the same mounting footprint as my older CP40-series sensors?

Yes, the CP40 construction size matches the standard rectangular footprint, and the active face can be oriented in nine directions to align with existing brackets.

How do I confirm the sensor is detecting metal at the full 30 mm range after installation?

Watch the high-luminance corner LEDs — they indicate supply voltage and switching state from any angle, lighting when the output activates on target approach.
