M12 inductive sensor for non-flush mounting

The Turck Ni4-M12-VN6X-H1141 is a chrome-plated brass proximity switch with a 4 mm rated switching distance and NPN complementary output. It operates on DC voltage up to 1030 V and connects via an M12 × 1 male connector. The threaded barrel design suits non-flush installation in metal housings. Weighing 30 g, it is supplied as a single unit in a box.

Replaces older M12 sensors

This model handles up to 1030 VDC, a significant increase over many standard DC sensors limited to lower ranges. The changeover contact function provides both normally open and normally closed signals in one device. Upgrade when your application demands higher voltage tolerance or complementary switching without adding a second sensor. The long barrel version also offers extra thread engagement for secure mounting in thick brackets.

Suits automation engineers wiring NPN logic circuits

Ideal for PLC inputs requiring sinking output signals and complementary contact feedback. The metal housing and chrome plating withstand industrial environments including coolant exposure. Not suited for flush-mount applications where the sensing face must sit level with surrounding metal. Buyers needing PNP sourcing output or AC supply voltage should look at alternative sensor types.

Questions about this item

What thread size and barrel length does the M12 × 1 housing need for mounting?

The sensor uses an M12 × 1 threaded barrel in the long version, requiring a matching M12 × 1 clearance hole and enough depth for the extended barrel.

How is the 4-wire DC connector wired, and which pin is commonly mistaken?

Connect the M12 × 1 male connector pins to 10–30 VDC supply, 0 V, NPN normally open and NPN normally closed outputs; the complementary pair is often swapped.

When should the chrome-plated brass sensing face be cleaned or the unit replaced?

Clean the sensing face if metal dust or coolant builds up; replace the sensor if the 4 mm switching distance drops or the NPN output fails after the three-year parts period.
