Schneider Electric XS8C4A4NCG13

The XS series is a collection of inductive proximity sensors designed for the non-contact detection of metallic objects. The benefits of inductive detection include no physical contact with the detected object, thereby avoiding wear and enabling detection of fragile or freshly painted items. These sensors operate at high speeds and respond quickly. They are robust and fully encapsulated in resin, making them resistant to harsh industrial environments.

This particular model is a 40mm x 40mm x 117mm sensor, non-flush mountable in metal. It features a plastic case with a plug-in 5 position turret head and a PG 13.5 cable entry. The sensing distance is 40mm. This four-wire, DC supply sensor operates between 12V to 48V with polarity protection, offering both NO (Normally Open) and NC (Normally Closed) functions, and an NPN discrete output.
