Rated 12 to 24 VDC, it drives a 2-wire NO output through a 4-pin M12 male connector — standard pinout, mates with any M12 cordset. Load current sits between 1.5 and 100 mA, so it works with PLC digital inputs without a pull-up resistor. ## Fit and mounting details Flush mounting means the sensing face can be level with a metal surface without reducing the 2mm range. The nickel-plated brass body and PPS face handle washdown environments — the IP67/69K rating covers submersion and high-pressure, high-temperature cleaning. Barrel diameter 12 mm fits standard 12mm mounting clamps and drill holes. ## Comparison with XS1M18MA250A A buyer holding a BOM line for the XS1M18MA250A cannot drop the XS512BSDAM12 into the same panel without changes. The XS1M18MA250A is an 18 mm barrel with a 5 mm sensing distance and operates on 24-240 VAC/VDC, while the XS512BSDAM12 is 12 mm, 2 mm range, and DC-only. The connector type differs as well — 7/8-16 TPI on the 18mm versus M12 on this part. For a DC-only system with 12 mm holes and M12 prewiring, the XS512BSDAM12 is a direct fit; otherwise, wiring and mounting adjustments are required.","metaTitle":"Telemecanique XS512BSDAM12 Proximity Sensor, 12mm DC NO, 2mm","metaDescription":"Inductive proximity sensor, 12mm threaded barrel, 2mm flush sensing, 12-24VDC, NO, 2-wire, M12 connector, IP67/69K, 4000Hz.
