The Schneider Electric XS1 series inductive proximity sensor, model XS1M30AB120, is engineered for reliable object detection in demanding industrial environments. This sensor features a cylindrical M30 form factor and a nickel-plated brass housing, providing robust mechanical protection and resistance to common industrial fluids and contaminants. Its design is well-suited for integration into automated systems requiring precise sensing capabilities.

Technical details

• Series: XS1
• Sensing Technology: Inductive Proximity
• Housing Material: Nickel-plated brass
• Housing Diameter: M30
• Output Type: PNP (typically determined by the 'B' in the part number, indicating a 3-wire PNP output)
• Switching Output: Normally Open (NO) (typically determined by the '120' in the part number, indicating a NO output)
• Detection Range: Up to 15 mm (nominal, refer to datasheet for exact sensing distance and hysteresis)
• Connection Type: Pre-wired with a 2-meter cable (typically determined by the '120' in the part number, indicating a cable connection)

Applications & compatibility

This inductive proximity sensor is commonly deployed in machine building, material handling, and assembly lines. It is suitable for detecting metallic objects in applications such as packaging machinery, conveyor systems, robotic cells, and CNC equipment where consistent and non-contact detection is critical for operational control and safety.
