Balluff BES0087 Inductive Sensor
Metal detection with the specified mounting arrangement
The Balluff BES M18MI-PSC50B-S04K, order BES0087, is an inductive proximity sensor with a PNP normally open output. Its exact specification identifies flush mounting and a sensing distance of 5 mm nominal / 4 mm assured.
The operating supply is 12–30 V DC and the listed switching frequency is 700 Hz. The sensor has nickel-plated brass housing; pa12 sensing face and an M12 male, 4-pin, A-coded connection.

Installation and replacement selection
Match the target material, mounting clearances and actual sensing position to the manufacturer instructions. Nominal switching distance is not an unrestricted guaranteed detection distance for every metal or installation.
The exact model is rated IP68 with the specified installation conditions and a −25 to +70 °C ambient range. Confirm the connector assignment and mating cordset before wiring; a recommended alternative remains a separate execution.

Balluff products listed
The BTL5 Micropulse is a magnetostrictive linear position sensor. A magnet travels along the sensing rod or profile and the electronics report its position without contact, which is why the type is common in hydraulic cylinders. The BES008L is an inductive proximity sensor in an M18 threaded housing with an 8 mm range, a PNP normally open output and an M12 plug.Ordering Balluff sensors: what we need
Balluff uses two identifiers: a short order code such as BES008L, and a long type code that spells out the design, here BES M18MI-PSC80B-S04G. Send both from the label. For a BTL transducer the long code is essential, because it contains the output signal, the nominal stroke length in millimeters, the housing style and the connector. State if the position magnet is needed too, along with the mating cable. For proximity sensors add the required cable or connector type.Browse Balluff products by category: Sensors & Transmitters, Encoders.
