Integrator's Line Item
XSAV11801L05 is a cylindrical M30 inductive proximity sensor switching a single NC contact at up to 100 Hz, with an 8 mm sensing range. It accepts any supply from 20 to 264 V AC or DC. The 2-wire NC configuration means the output is energized in the absence of a target; if the cable is cut or the sensor loses power, the circuit opens — a failsafe behavior. Do not rely on this sensor for emergency stop without a monitored safety relay; it lacks the redundant internal contacts and forced guided mechanism of a safety-rated device.
What the Ratings Mean for Fit
Sensing range of 8 mm is measured against a standard steel target; derate for aluminum or stainless. The 3% repeat accuracy and 3–15% differential travel prevent chatter at the switching threshold. The 5 m cable gives you fixed length; no connector option listed. Wire with 2 × 0.34 mm² conductors — fine for control circuits up to a few hundred meters, but if your cable run exceeds 100 m, confirm voltage drop stays above the minimum operating voltage at the sensor terminals. At 200 mA DC load, the 5.7 V closed-state drop is significant; subtract that from supply voltage when sizing a distant 24 V DC supply. Switching frequency of 100 Hz is enough for conveyor presence and motor rotation monitoring but not for high-speed counting on a packaging line running 200 ppm. The 9-second power-up delay means the output remains open for 9 s after energization — plan for that in your sequence startup logic.
