The Telemecanique XS7C1A1NAM8 is an inductive proximity sensor from the XS7 series, housed in a flat 40 x 40 x 15 mm body. The 15 mm size rating refers to the sensing face dimension — this is a compact block-style sensor designed for flush mounting in tight spaces on machine frames or conveyor rails.
Form-Fit-Function Notes
The XS7C1A1NAM8 shares the 40 x 40 x 15 mm envelope with the XS7E1A1PBL01M12, which uses a 0.1 m pigtail with M12 connector and PNP NC output. Verify the connector type and output configuration before ordering.
Deployment Context
The flat 40 x 40 x 15 mm profile suits applications where space is constrained along the sensing axis — typical on transfer stations, pick-and-place grippers, or die-cushion position detection. The block form factor mounts directly to machine frames or DIN-rail brackets via the sensor's through-holes.
