The Schneider Electric XS7H10PA340 is an inductive proximity sensor designed for general-purpose metal detection in automated systems. This sensor is part of the XS series, known for its robust construction and reliable sensing capabilities in demanding industrial environments. Its non-contact operation ensures longevity and prevents wear, making it suitable for high-cycle applications.

Technical details

• Sensor Type: Inductive proximity sensor
• Detection Principle: Non-contact detection of metallic objects
• Sensing Range: 10 mm nominal sensing distance
• Output Type: PNP, NO (Normally Open)
• Connection Type: M12 connector, 4-pin
• Supply Voltage: 12-24 VDC (as indicated by the '340' suffix, common for this voltage range in Schneider Electric part numbers)
• Housing Material: Nickel-plated brass
• Operating Temperature: -25 to 70 °C

Applications & compatibility

This inductive proximity sensor is commonly employed in machine building, material handling, and assembly lines for detecting the presence or absence of metal parts. It is compatible with standard DC control systems and PLCs that accept PNP NO outputs, finding use in applications such as packaging machinery, conveyor belt control, and robotic end-of-arm tooling.
