BI5-M18E-LIU-H1141 is a Turck inductive sensor in an M18 threaded housing with analog output, for flush mounting. Its output signal is proportional to the distance of a metal target and linear across the whole measuring range. The sensor is intended for simple control tasks where the distance matters, not just presence.
- Accuracy: linearity deviation 3 %, repeatability ≤ 1 % of measuring range (0.5 % after 0.5 h warm-up), reproducibility ≤ 20 µm (≤ 10 µm after warm-up), temperature drift ≤ ±0.06 %/K
- Measuring range: 2...4 mm (St37 steel target)
- Outputs: voltage 0...10 V (load ≥ 4.7 kΩ) and current 0...20 mA (load ≤ 0.4 kΩ); measuring frequency 200 Hz
- Supply: 15...30 VDC, 4-wire, no-load current 8 mA
