Product details

The XS4P12PA340 is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor from the XS4 series, delivering a 4 mm shielded sensing range with a PNP normally-open output. It runs on 12-24 VDC (3-wire) and comes with a 2 m bare wire cable. The IP68-rated PPS housing and Ecolab certification make it a practical choice for washdown zones in food, beverage, or chemical processing — environments where you'd otherwise be replacing IP67 sensors frequently. Built-in overload, reverse polarity, and short circuit protection mean you don't need to add separate fuses or diode blocks for basic fault immunity. That simplifies the BOM and cuts one failure point per sensor position.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings?

4 mm shielded sensing distance, PNP NO output, 12-24 VDC supply, 3-wire prewired cable 2 m, IP68, PPS body, operating temperature -13 to 158 °F. Approvals: CE, CSA, Ecolab, UL Listed.

What protections does this sensor include?

Overload protection, reverse polarity protection, and short circuit protection are built in, reducing need for external circuit protection components.

Is XS9E11RPBL01M12 a drop-in replacement?

No. XS9E11RPBL01M12 is a rectangular block sensor with M12 connector, 10 mm range, NC output, and IP67 — different form factor, wiring, and output polarity. Mechanical rework and rewiring are required.

What compliance documentation is available?

The sensor carries UL Listing, CSA, CE, and Ecolab certifications. RoHS/REACH compliance is not explicitly listed in available data; verify with factory documentation if required.
