Telemecanique Sensors XS612B1MBU20 is a shielded inductive proximity sensor from the XS6 series. It detects ferrous metal targets at 4 mm range, outputs a normally closed 2-wire signal, and accepts 24-240 V AC or DC supply. The brass housing with nickel plating and IP67/IP69K sealing makes it suitable for washdown environments.
The 17 mm diameter cylindrical body mounts flush thanks to the shielded sensing face – no side derating needed when embedded in metal. Connection is via a 1/2-inch integral connector (3-pin), reducing wiring time compared to pigtail versions. The built-in LED indicator confirms power and switching state. Supply voltage covers 24-240 V AC or DC, so one sensor works across plant voltages without module swaps. The 4 mm sensing distance is typical for this size; verify target material (steel vs stainless) if maximum range is critical.
