Turck Ni8-M12 Inductive Sensor

The Turck Ni8-M12-AP6X-H1141 is a non-flush threaded barrel sensor with an 8 mm rated switching distance. It operates on 10 to 30 VDC and provides a PNP normally open output through an M12 male connector. The chrome-plated brass housing meets IP68 protection and includes uprox®+ Factor 1 technology for consistent detection across all metals.

Who This Suits and Who Should Look Elsewhere

This sensor suits automation engineers who need reliable metal detection in harsh environments with magnetic interference or wide temperature swings. The Factor 1 design eliminates the need for correction factors when sensing different metals. Buyers who require a flush-mountable format, an NPN output type, or a cable connection instead of an M12 connector should look at other models.

Build Integration and System Fit

The M12 × 1 threaded barrel fits standard sensor mounting brackets and connects directly to an M12 cable socket for quick wiring. Its 3-wire DC design integrates with common PLC input modules without additional signal conditioning. The IP68 rating and magnetic-field resistance free the installer from adding extra shielding or protective enclosures in demanding applications.

Questions about this item

What power supply voltage range must I already have for this 10…30 VDC sensor to operate?

The sensor requires a DC supply between 10 V and 30 V, so your existing power source must deliver within that window.

Will the M12 × 1 male connector on this sensor mate with the M12 cables I already use on older machines?

Yes, the M12 × 1 male connector follows the standard M12 threading, so it fits existing M12 female cables without adapters.

How can I verify the PNP output is switching correctly after I wire the sensor?

With the target metal present, measure the output pin against ground; it should read the supply voltage, confirming the NO contact closes as specified.
