Industrial M18 inductive sensor

The Turck BI5-G18-RZ3X-B1431 is a flush-mount proximity switch built for electricians and maintenance technicians who need reliable metal detection in automated machinery, conveyor systems or process equipment. Its chrome-plated brass barrel and 7/8-inch male connector suit harsh industrial environments where oil, coolant or vibration are present.

Sustained-operation behaviour

Rated for continuous AC 20–250 VDC or DC 10–300 VDC supply, the sensor maintains a normally-closed output without drift during extended duty cycles. The metal housing dissipates heat effectively, while the IP-rated connector seal prevents ingress that could cause false triggers over long production runs.

Decisive specification

The 5 mm rated switching distance determines whether the device fits the application; it defines the maximum reliable detection gap for ferrous targets when the barrel is mounted flush in a metal bracket.

Questions about this item

How much heat or power does the BI5-G18-RZ3X-B1431 draw when running continuously on a 250 VDC line?

The sensor operates on AC 2-wire 20…250 VDC or DC 2-wire 10…300 VDC; power draw depends on the connected load, not the sensor itself.

What voltage supply and connector must I already have to wire this M18 inductive sensor?

You need a 20…250 VAC or 10…300 VDC source and a mating 7/8" female connector for the 2-wire NC output.

Will this M18 × 1 flush-mount sensor fit the same cut-out as my older M18 proximity switches?

Yes — it uses the standard M18 × 1 threaded barrel and flush mounting, so it matches the same panel cut-out as other M18 flush sensors.
