M18 NAMUR inductive sensor

The Turck BI5-M18-Y1X-H1141 is a flush-mount inductive proximity sensor in an M18 × 1 chrome-plated brass barrel. It operates on a nominal 8.2 VDC two-wire NAMUR output to DIN EN 60947-5-6 and connects via an M12 × 1 male connector. The unit weighs 68 g and is manufactured in Germany.

Hazardous-area and safety-rated installations

This sensor suits plants that require ATEX approvals for gas and dust zones together with SIL2 and PLc functional-safety ratings. It is not for applications that need a standard PNP or NPN switching output or a higher switching distance than the rated 5 mm.

NAMUR output on M12 connector

The single specification that decides fit is the DIN EN 60947-5-6 NAMUR output delivered through the M12 × 1 connector; the host system must provide a compatible NAMUR input channel.

Questions about this item

What does the NAMUR interface to DIN EN 60947-5-6 limit in practice?

The NAMUR output at 8.2 VDC supplies a low current signal that requires an approved switching amplifier; it cannot drive loads directly and is intended for intrinsically safe circuits.

What thread and clearance does the M18 × 1 barrel need to mount flush?

It needs an M18 × 1 threaded hole or nut and enough front clearance for the 12 mm connector end; the chrome-plated brass barrel seats flush in metal.

How is the sensor wired to the M12 connector and what is the common mistake?

Connect the two DC wires to pins 1 and 3 of the M12 male plug; the common mistake is reversing polarity because NAMUR sensors need the correct 8.2 VDC supply orientation.
