Balluff BES 516-356-B0-C Inductive Proximity Sensor

Balluff BES 516-356-B0-C is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor with a 4 mm sensing distance, housed in a compact M12x1 body (Ø12 x 37.5 mm) designed for non-flush mounting in tight spaces on automated lines. It provides a PNP normally open switching output and operates from a 10 to 30 V DC supply, with a 4-pin M12 connector and a 1 m PUR cable for straightforward integration into standard control circuits. The sensor features a brass, nickel-plated housing and a PBT sensing face, and it carries IP68 protection to withstand washdown and harsh industrial environments. Its switching frequency reaches up to 2,000 Hz, enabling reliable sensing of fast-moving components in demanding applications.
