Product details

The Square D XS518BLPBM12 is an 18 mm inductive proximity sensor from the OsiSense XS series, specified for flush mounting with a 5 mm sensing range. It switches at 2000 Hz and carries a PNP normally-closed output, rated for 200 mA over 12–48 VDC. The body is nickel-plated brass with a polyphenylene sulfide sensing face, protected to IP67/69K. Common in machine position detection, conveyor routing, and part presence on high-speed lines where washdown resistance matters.

The XS4P30PC410D (30 mm barrel, unshielded, 15 mm sensing, NO/NC PNP, 12–24 VDC) is a different frame and sensing profile. The XS518BLPBM12 is a direct swap only when the existing drawing calls for the 18 mm flush-mounted variant with PNP NC wiring and 5 mm range.

UL, CSA, and CE approved; RoHS compliant. The 4-pin M12 male connector (3-wire) is standard for PNP DC sensors; verify the mating cable pinout before the install shift.

Frequently asked questions

When sourcing XS518BLPBM12, what's the closest functional second-source — XS4P30PC410D?

The XS4P30PC410D is a 30 mm unshielded sensor with 15 mm sensing and programmable NO/NC output. It is not a direct second-source for the XS518BLPBM12 due to different barrel diameter, shielding, and sensing distance. The correct drop-in must be the 18 mm flush PNP NC variant.

What is XS518BLPBM12's listed UPC (78590194682) on this component line?

The UPC is 78590194682.

What is XS518BLPBM12's listed approval (UL, CSA, CE) on this component line?

The sensor is approved to UL, CSA, and CE standards.

Will XS518BLPBM12 drop into a panel that was specified around XS4P30PC410D without rewiring?

No. The XS518BLPBM12 is an 18 mm flush mount with a 5 mm sensing range and a fixed PNP NC output (3-wire), while the XS4P30PC410D is a 30 mm unshielded sensor with 15 mm range and programmable NO/NC (4-wire). Mounting depth and wiring differ; a re-panel is required.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for XS518BLPBM12 (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC)?

The XS518BLPBM12 is listed as RoHS compliant and carries UL, CSA, and CE approvals. For REACH and IEC certificates, refer to the official Square D documentation bundle; these are not listed in the spec abstract.
