The Telemecanique XS112B3PAL2 is an XS1-family inductive proximity sensor of the XS range with a cylindrical M12 x 1 threaded body. It is flush mountable in metal. Nominal sensing distance (Sn) is 4 mm, with an operating zone of 0–3.2 mm. Enclosure is nickel-plated brass, sensing face PPS; length 37 mm, threaded length 25 mm, net weight 0.09 kg. Differential travel is 1–15 % of the effective sensing distance; switching frequency is up to 2500 Hz. The manufacturer lists mobile equipment as its device application.
Supply is 12–24 V DC (limits 10–36 V DC) with reverse polarity protection. The PNP 1 NO output switches up to 200 mA with overload and short-circuit protection; closed-state voltage drop is below 2 V and no-load current consumption is at most 10 mA. Connection is via a 2 m PVC-insulated 3 x 0.34 mm² cable; a yellow LED shows the output state. Degree of protection is IP65 (IEC 60529) and IP67 (IEC 60529); operating temperature is -25 to +70 °C. Certifications: CSA, UL and E2.

Is this inductive sensor right for your application?
Share the metal target to be detected (material, size), the required sensing distance, the mounting type (flush / non-flush), ambient conditions (oil, coolant, washdown, temperature) and your PLC input (PNP/NPN, NO/NC); let’s select the right inductive sensor and connection cable together.
