Turck M8 inductive sensor NPN

This Turck Ni3-EG08-AN6X-V1131 inductive sensor detects metal objects without physical contact using an NPN output. It operates on 10 to 30 VDC and provides a normally open switching signal. The unit suits automation and electrician tasks that require reliable presence detection.

M8 threaded barrel stainless housing

The sensor fits an M8 × 1 threaded barrel mount and connects via an M8 × 1 male connector for quick installation. Its stainless steel 1.4427 SO housing resists corrosion in industrial environments. Non-flush mounting allows the sensing face to extend beyond surrounding metal for clear detection.

Sustained operation within rated range

Rated switching distance is 3 millimetres under continuous DC supply between 10 and 30 volts. The NPN output maintains stable switching without drift during extended cycles. The 18 gram weight adds minimal load to moving assemblies or fixture plates.

Questions about this item

How far can the Ni3-EG08-AN6X-V1131 reliably detect a target before the rated switching distance is exceeded?

The rated switching distance is 3 mm, so the sensor will reliably detect a target up to that distance under normal conditions.

Does the stainless-steel housing and M8 connector limit heat rise or power draw during continuous 10–30 VDC operation?

The sensor draws only the current required by its NPN output stage within the 10–30 VDC supply range, and the 1.4427 stainless-steel housing dissipates the minimal heat generated during all-day use.

What mating cable or connector must I already have to plug into the M8 × 1 male connector on this sensor?

You need an M8 × 1 female cordset or field-attachable connector with the same pin assignment to connect the sensor to your control system.
