What the XS508B1PAL2 carries for fit
The XS508B1PAL2 is an XS5 series inductive cylindrical proximity sensor with an M8 threaded stainless steel body (grade 303), rated IP67 and NEMA 4X. Its key fit parameters: a shielded 2 mm sensing range, PNP normally open output at 12-24V DC, capable of switching up to 200 mA. The three-wire 2 m prewired cable (bare wire termination) matches standard industrial wiring for a PNP sensor: brown for supply, blue for ground, black for output. Overload, reverse polarity, and short circuit protection are built in, reducing the need for external suppression or fusing in the control circuit. Operating temperature range is -13 °F to 158 °F, suitable for machine-mount applications inside and outside enclosures.
