The XS608B1NAL2: Telemecanique XS6 inductive proximity sensor in the shielded M8 tubular form. Extended-range sensing reaches 3 mm — a solid reach for this 8 mm can. Stainless steel body (303 grade) with nickel plating, rated IP67 and NEMA 4X. Prewired 2 m cable with bare wire ends, 3-wire NPN normally open output. Supply spans 12-48 VDC; load current up to 200 mA. Inductive sensor for ferrous and non-ferrous metal detection in demanding environments — machine tools, packaging lines, conveyors where washdown or coolant contact is typical. Shielded sensing face allows flush mounting in metal panels without derating the 3 mm sensing distance. Compliance: CE, CSA, RoHS, UL Listed. These markings cover the electromagnetic compatibility, safety, and material restrictions for most industrial panels and OEM equipment shipped to North America and Europe.
