BI5-M18-RZ3X/S90 - IP67 5mm M18 Thread - Industrial Stainless Vibration-Resist -

Product Specification

Product Overview​

The ​Turck BI5-M18-RZ3X/S90​ is a high-performance ​inductive proximity sensor​ designed for reliable object detection in demanding industrial environments. Featuring an M18 stainless steel housing, this sensor provides robust resistance to mechanical stress, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. Its flush-mount design enables detection of ferrous metal targets with a sensing range optimized for tight installation spaces. The sensor operates on a 10-30 V DC supply and delivers a PNP normally open (NO) output via a pre-wired M12 connector (RZ3X variant), ensuring quick integration into automation systems. With IP67/IP69K protection, it performs reliably in applications exposed to dust, moisture, and high-pressure washdowns, making it ideal for automotive, food processing, and heavy machinery industries.

​Key Technical Parameters​

• ​Sensing Range: 8 mm (for mild steel targets; reduced for non-ferrous metals).
• ​Supply Voltage: 10-30 V DC (±10%) with reverse polarity protection.
• ​Output Type: PNP transistor (NO), 200 mA max load current.
• ​Housing Material: Stainless steel (V4A/316L) with anti-corrosion coating.
• ​Operating Temperature: -25°C to +85°C (-13°F to +185°F).
• ​Protection Class: IP67/IP69K (submersible and resistant to high-pressure cleaning).
• ​Switching Frequency: Up to 1 kHz for high-speed detection.
• ​Connector: M12 4-pin (RZ3X) with 2-meter PVC cable (S90 variant).
• ​Certifications: CE, UL, cULus, RoHS, and REACH compliance.

​Typical Applications​

The ​BI5-M18-RZ3X/S90​ is widely used in industrial automation scenarios requiring precision and durability:

• ​Assembly Lines: Detecting metal components in robotic welding or pick-and-place systems.
• ​Packaging Machinery: Verifying the presence of metal lids or foil-sealed containers.
• ​Food & Beverage: Monitoring stainless steel valves or conveyor chains in washdown environments.
• ​Material Handling: Position sensing of metal pallets or tooling in automated warehouses.
• ​Mobile Equipment: Detecting hydraulic cylinder positions in construction or agricultural vehicles.
  Its immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) ensures stable performance near motors or frequency inverters.

​Competitive Advantages​

1. ​Robust Construction: Stainless steel housing withstands aggressive chemicals, impacts, and temperature extremes.
2. ​High Sensing Accuracy: Minimal drift over time ensures consistent detection of small or thin targets.
3. ​Easy Installation: Pre-wired M12 connector (S90 cable variant) reduces wiring complexity and downtime.
4. ​Versatile Mounting: Flush or non-flush installation options adapt to space-constrained environments.
5. ​Extended Lifespan: Sealed design and high-quality materials minimize wear in high-cycle applications.

​Core Functionalities​

The ​BI5-M18-RZ3X/S90​ offers advanced features for industrial reliability:

• ​Short-Circuit Protection: Safeguards output circuits from overloads and wiring faults.
• ​Status Indicators: Dual LEDs (green for power, yellow for output state) enable quick diagnostics.
• ​Temperature Stability: Maintains performance across extreme thermal conditions.
• ​IO-Link Compatibility​ (if applicable): Enables parameterization and diagnostics in smart factories.
• ​Vibration Resistance: Secure M12 connection ensures uninterrupted operation in high-vibration zones.
