The Turck BI3U-M12-AP6X-H1141 is a high-performance inductive sensor designed for reliable and contactless detection of metallic objects. This sensor is housed in a robust, chrome-plated brass barrel with M12 threading, ensuring durability and ease of installation in a variety of industrial settings. With a rated switching distance of 3 mm and flush mounting conditions, it offers precise operation and repeat accuracy.
Engineered to maintain stable performance across a wide temperature range, the sensor is equipped with short-circuit protection and is resistant to magnetic fields, making it suitable for challenging environments. The device operates on a 10 to 30 VDC power supply and features a 3-wire, normally open (NO) contact with a PNP output, ensuring compatibility with a broad range of control systems.
The Turck BI3U-M12-AP6X-H1141 boasts an IP68 protection class, signifying its ability to withstand dust and moisture ingress, which is critical for applications in harsh conditions. Its high switching frequency allows for rapid detection tasks, enhancing the efficiency of automated processes.
This sensor is an ideal choice for those seeking a reliable and versatile solution for proximity detection in sectors such as manufacturing, automation, and machinery. With its factor 1 sensitivity, it detects all metals at equal distances, offering consistent performance and simplifying setup without the need for sensor adjustments for different metal types.

Excellent service partially from Mark who stayed late to ensure the part arrived with me same day as this was a critical part for me even though this was my first time using Marvo. I will defiantly be using again.Josh Holt
Found the part we needed at the best price. Spoke to Rob to make sure the part was actually in stock, as many companies don't actually have the part available to ship. It was in stock ready and the part was checked and shipped and received within a couple of days from their German stock. Would definitely use again and recommend.Chris Sentance
