Schneider Electric XS8C1A1PAM8

This inductive proximity sensor, designated as XS8, features a compact design with dimensions of 40 x 40 x 15 mm and is constructed from PBT material, ensuring robust mechanical and chemical resistance. It functions effectively within a supply voltage range of 12 to 24 V DC and supports reverse polarity protection. The sensor is equipped with a male M8 connector, facilitating compatibility with standard market sensor cabling.

The XS8 model offers an increased nominal sensing distance, achieving 25 mm for non-flush mounting applications and 15 mm for flush installations. This enhanced range is particularly beneficial in processes where precise object circulation is challenging. Its design includes four screw fixing points for direct surface mounting, making installation straightforward.

With an IP67 rating conforming to IEC 60529, this sensor is capable of withstanding harsh environmental conditions, operating effectively in temperatures ranging from -25°C to +70°C. A yellow LED indicator provides output status information, aiding in sensor setup and troubleshooting.

In terms of performance, the XS8 has a switching frequency of up to 1000 Hz, with a maximum load capacity of 200 mA DC, and offers overload and short-circuit protection. The sensor has been certified in accordance with several standards, including Ecolab, UL, and CSA.
