Telemecanique Sensors XS1N18PA349D Proximity Sensor

Product Description

The TELEMECANIQUE SENSORS XS1N18PA349D is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor designed for non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial automation and control applications. Built on an M18x1 threaded brass housing with a 50 mm overall length, this sensor detects targets at a distance of up to 10 mm. It operates on 12 to 24 volts DC and delivers a PNP, normally open output signal through a four-pin M12 male connector. Licensed electricians and automation technicians install this sensor in machine control panels, conveyor systems, and position-sensing circuits where reliable, contactless switching is required.

This sensor is suited for both light industrial and demanding production environments. The IP67 and IP69 ingress protection ratings make it appropriate for applications exposed to washdowns, coolant splash, and dust. With a maximum load capacity of 200 milliamps and a response frequency of 1,000 Hz, it handles high-cycle detection tasks on packaging lines, transfer systems, and automated assembly equipment. Its shock-resistant and vibration-resistant construction supports reliable operation on machinery with significant mechanical activity.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit inductive proximity sensor replacement for M18 threaded cylindrical sensor mounting positions in industrial control and automation systems requiring a PNP, normally open, 12 to 24 volt DC output device.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or automation technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements and the equipment manufacturer's wiring documentation. De-energize and lock out the control circuit before wiring or replacing the sensor. Connect using a compatible four-pin M12 cable assembly and verify output polarity against the control input before restoring power. Avoid mounting the sensor in direct contact with ferrous metal mounting brackets that could affect detection distance or sensitivity.
