40 mm sensing range in a sealed rectangular body
The XS8C4A4NCG13: Rated IP65, IP67, and IP69K, the sensor body and the bare-wire cable entry withstand high-pressure washdown and steam cleaning — a requirement for food-and-beverage or pharmaceutical lines where sanitation cycles are routine. The 40 mm sensing range is the maximum for an unshielded rectangular inductive in this class; it detects ferrous targets at that distance without flush mounting, so the target approach path and material correction factor (0.7× for stainless) must be accounted for in the mechanical layout.
NPN output and wiring for control logic
Output is NPN (sinking), with a selectable NO/NC contact form, rated 200 mA maximum load current at 12–48 VDC — compatible with most PLC digital input modules that sink current from a positive supply rail. Four-wire connection via screw-clamp terminals on the bare-wire leads; the fourth wire enables the NO/NC selection without an external jumper, simplifying the wiring diagram for a panel builder. An integral LED indicator provides local status confirmation during commissioning and fault isolation, visible through the PBT housing.
Compliance documentation for tender and audit
Listed with UL, CSA, CE, CCC, and approvals, and RoHS compliant — the certification set covers North American and European installations, which satisfies the documentation requirements for a public-sector tender or a quality audit. Operating temperature range is -13 °F to 158 °F (-25 °C to 70 °C), suitable for indoor industrial environments and outdoor enclosures in temperate climates.
