What the XS1-M12F-A260 Is and Where It Stands
The XS1-M12F-A260 is a Telemecanique inductive proximity sensor in an M12 barrel format, used for non-contact position detection in industrial automation. The manufacturer has superseded this code with XS1M12MA230, making the original a legacy part.
The official replacement is XS1M12MA230 – the manufacturer's own cross-reference, not a parametric suggestion. For BOM lines that still carry the XS1-M12F-A260, the part is available through surplus and broker channels. Submit an RFQ; we can quote the original or the successor.
