The Turck BIM-IKT-AP6X-H1141 is a high-performance magnetic field sensor designed specifically for pneumatic cylinders. This sensor excels in detecting the position of pistons within cylinders, leveraging its ability to sense magnetic fields through non-magnetizable metals like aluminium. With a robust rectangular design, the sensor measures 30 x 14.6 x 28 mm and is constructed from durable metal (GD-Zn) with a plastic active area (PA12-GF30). It operates efficiently within a voltage range of 10 to 30 VDC and features a 3-wire, NO contact, PNP output. The sensor is equipped with a male M12 x 1 connector, ensuring reliable electrical connections. It offers excellent environmental resilience, with an ambient temperature range of -25 to +70 °C, vibration resistance of 55 Hz (1 mm), and shock resistance of 30 g (11 ms). The Turck BIM-IKT-AP6X-H1141 is an ideal choice for applications requiring precise and reliable piston position detection in pneumatic systems.

Found the component I was looking for at a great price. Excellent support from the staff as I was paying by wire transfer. Fast delivery and very good packaging.Adriano Tiberi
Extremely helpful. They shipped me a replacement unit the next day, and I was up and running within 24 hours. A brand-new replacement from the machinery manufacturer would have had a 7-day lead time.Sean Conlin
Found the part we needed at the best price. I spoke with Rob to make sure it was actually in stock, as many companies don’t really have it available to ship. It was ready, checked, and shipped, and we received it within a few days from their German stock. Would definitely use again and recommend.Chris Sentance
First time working with Marvo. They had what I needed, took great care of me, and got my order out right away. I was very impressed with the service and the person I spoke with. I will definitely work with them again in the future.Robert Cohen
