NI5-G12K-AP6X Turck Inductive Sensors

Turck NI5-G12K-AP6X is an inductive proximity sensor designed for a variety of applications requiring precise, non-contact detection of metallic objects. This sensor operates within an ambient air temperature range of -25°C to +70°C and features a 2m pre-wired cable with bare end flying leads for easy installation. It belongs to the NI...-G12 series and comes in a short barrel design with an M12 fully threaded short cylindrical shape. The sensor is equipped with a chrome-plated brass housing and a PA12-GF30 (glass fiber reinforced Polyamide) sensing face, along with a PVC cable jacket, ensuring durability in challenging environments. It offers a sensing distance of 5mm and operates in a Normally Open (NO) mode. The sensor is designed to work with a supply voltage of 10-30Vdc, including nominal 12Vdc and 24Vdc, and supports a digital output (10-30Vdc; PNP; 200mA max.) with a maximum switching frequency of 1.5kHz. It features a degree of protection of IP67, making it suitable for use in environments where dust and moisture resistance is required. The sensor also includes protection functions against short-circuit (pulsed), overload, and reverse polarity, with a response time of 8ms and a control circuit rated current of 200mA. The current consumption under no-load conditions is 15mA.
