The Telemecanique XS212BLPAM12 is an M12 inductive proximity sensor from the XS2 series, delivering a 4 mm sensing distance with unshielded PNP normally open output. That means it detects ferrous targets at that range without needing a flush mount – common for position sensing on machine slides or conveyors. Rated for 12-24 V DC supply and 200 mA load current, it directly drives PLC inputs or small relays. The brass body with nickel plating handles vibration and corrosion; IP67 and NEMA 4X let it survive washdown and outdoor exposure.
