The XS506B1NBL2 is a 6.5 mm unthreaded inductive proximity sensor from the XS5 series, with a shielded sensing face and NPN normally closed output. Sensing distance is 2 mm on mild steel, repeatable within the stated tolerance; the 12-24 VDC supply range covers standard 24 V control loops. The stainless steel 303 body is nickel-plated for corrosion resistance, with IP65 and IP68 sealing – IP68 permits continuous immersion per the rating conditions. The NPN output sinks up to 200 mA, sufficient for direct connection to most PLC inputs rated for 3-wire sensors. The 2 m prewired cable with bare ends allows terminations in a junction box or sensor connector – strip length and termination method should follow the spring-clamp or screw terminal manufacturer's spec for that gauge.
