Inductive Sensor PNP M12 × 1

The Turck NI10U-M12-AP6X 1634790 is a non-flush inductive proximity switch with a chrome-plated brass barrel. It suits engineers and technicians who need reliable metal detection in industrial automation or machine-building environments. The sensor operates on 10…30 VDC with a PNP normally-open output and connects via an M8 × 1 male connector.

Interface and Mounting Constraints

The DC 3-wire interface limits wiring to standard three-conductor cabling within the 10…30 VDC supply range. Non-flush mounting requires a metal-free zone around the sensing face, which restricts installation in tightly packed assemblies. The M8 × 1 connector fixes the cable choice to matching cordsets, and the IP68 rating allows permanent immersion but not high-pressure washdown beyond the standard.

Factor 1 for All Metals

The uprox®+ Factor 1 specification means the rated switching distance of 10 applies equally to every metal target without correction factors. This single figure decides suitability: if the application demands a longer sensing range or a flush-mountable housing, this model will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the flush or non-flush mounting version of this sensor?

This model is the non-flush mounting version, designed for applications where the sensor face cannot sit level with the surrounding metal.

What does the rated switching distance of 10 mean when the sensor is installed?

It provides a 10 mm sensing range on all metals thanks to the Factor 1 uprox®+ technology, without needing correction factors for different materials.

How does the M8 × 1 connector affect the voltage and output type I can use?

The 3-wire M8 connector carries 10…30 VDC and delivers a PNP normally-open output signal directly to your control system.
