"Thumbs up to Rob for helping out with an urgent requirement we had on a Friday afternoon. The part we wanted was over in Europe and Rob went out of his way to get it ordered and on site here for the following Tuesday."
The Turck BI5-G18-AP6X-B1441 is a high-performance inductive sensor designed for reliable detection of metallic objects in a variety of industrial applications. This sensor features a robust, chrome-plated brass barrel with an M18 x 1 thread, making it suitable for flush mounting in tight spaces. With a rated switching distance of 5 mm, it ensures precise operation and includes a secured operating distance of ≤ (0.81 × Sn) mm to maintain accuracy and repeatability.
Equipped with a 3-wire, normally open (NO) PNP output, the sensor operates within a 10 to 30 VDC range and is capable of handling a DC rated operational current of ≤ 200 mA. The inclusion of short-circuit protection and wire breakage/reverse polarity protection ensures the sensor's longevity and reliability in demanding environments.
The BI5-G18-AP6X-B1441 is designed to withstand harsh conditions, featuring an IP67 protection class rating, which means it is dust-tight and can resist water ingress, making it suitable for use in a wide range of environmental conditions. The sensor's operating temperature range of -25 to +70 °C allows for deployment in diverse climates without compromising performance.
With a switching frequency of 0.5 kHz, this sensor is capable of rapid detection, which is essential for high-speed automation processes. The LED indicator provides clear, visual confirmation of the switching state, enhancing ease of use and monitoring.
This sensor is an ideal choice for those seeking a durable, accurate, and easy-to-install solution for metal detection in automation, assembly lines, and machinery applications. Its technical sophistication and build quality make it a valuable component in any industrial setting.

Absolutely fantastic service. Rob was very helpful. Great communication. Requested part was shipped in no time.Konrad Eliaszuk
Extremely Helpful. Shipped me a replacement unit next day and i was up and running within 24 hours. Replacement new from machinery manufacturers was on a 7 day lead time.Sean Conlin
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
FIRST TIME WORKING WITH MARVO. THEY HAD WHAT I NEEDED AND TOOK GREAT CARE OF ME AND GOT MY ORDER OUT IMMEDITELY. WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE SERVICE AND THE PERSON I SPOKE WITH. I WILL DEFINITELY WORK WITH THEM QGAIN IN THE FUTURE.Robert Cohen
