Overview
The Turck BI10-S30-AN6X is an embeddable inductive proximity sensor featuring a ferrite barrel construction and M30 x 1.5 threaded housing. This model offers a 10mm sensing range with a 2m cable terminated in bare flying leads and one digital NPN output rated 10-30Vdc with 200mA maximum current. The ferrite design provides consistent metal detection across all metal types while resisting magnetic field interference.
