The BES M12MD1-PSC80B-S04G is an inductive proximity sensor with a PNP normally open output, housed in an M12, 12mm diameter brass body with a nickel-free coating and PBT sensing surface. It detects metal targets at a rated operating distance of 8mm and is designed for quasi-flush mounting, making it suitable for installations where the sensor face sits close to surrounding metal. Electrical connection is via an M12x1, 3-pin, A-coded male connector, and the sensor operates from 10-30 VDC with a rated operating current of 200 mA and a switching frequency of 500 Hz. With an IP68 rating, it is suited to industrial automation environments requiring reliable object detection under exposure to dust and moisture.
