Industrial M18 inductive sensor

The Turck BI5-M18-Y1X-H1141 is a flush-mount inductive sensor with a threaded M18 × 1 barrel. It operates on a nominal 8.2 VDC supply and provides a NAMUR output compliant with DIN EN 60947-5-6. The unit is built for hazardous-area use, carrying ATEX approvals for gas and dust zones as well as SIL2 and PLc functional-safety ratings.

Chrome-plated brass housing and M12 connector

The sensor body is made from chrome-plated brass (CuZn) for corrosion resistance in harsh environments. An M12 × 1 male connector provides a secure, tool-free electrical connection that simplifies installation and replacement in the field. The two-wire DC design reduces cabling effort compared with three-wire alternatives.

5 mm rated switching distance

The sensor detects metal targets at a rated switching distance of 5 mm when mounted flush in metal. This sensing range determines whether the device fits the required detection gap in a given machine or safety application. Buyers needing a longer range or non-flush mounting should select a different model.

Questions about this item

How often should the M18 threaded barrel and M12 connector be inspected for wear?

The sensor has no moving parts; periodic visual checks of the chrome-plated brass barrel and M12 connector for corrosion or mechanical damage are sufficient.

What limits continuous operation at the 8.2 VDC nominal supply?

The NAMUR output to DIN EN 60947-5-6 defines the current-loop signal range; exceeding the specified switching distance or supply tolerance degrades detection reliability first.

Does the 66 g housing run hot or draw extra power during all-day use?

Power dissipation is minimal at the 8.2 VDC NAMUR loop current; the metal CuZn body stays near ambient temperature and operates silently.
