BC3-S12-RP6X Turck Industrial Automation Components

Turck BC3-S12-RP6X is a capacitive proximity sensor/switch that falls under the BC...-S12 series. This embeddable design sensor operates with a supply voltage of 10-30Vdc, including nominal values of 12Vdc and 24Vdc. It features a housing and sensing face made of PA12-GF30 (glass fiber reinforced Polyamide) and a PVC cable jacket for its pre-wired 2m / 6.5ft cable, which terminates with bare end flying leads. The sensor has an M12 partially threaded barrel shape and offers an IP67 degree of protection. It supports a maximum switching frequency of 100Hz and can operate within an ambient air temperature range of -25°C to +70°C. The BC3-S12-RP6X provides 1 x digital output (10-30Vdc; PNP; 200mA max.) and has a no-load current consumption of 15mA. Its sensing distance is 3mm. For protection, it includes functions against short-circuit (pulsed), overload, and reverse polarity. The thread size is M12, and it operates in a Normally Closed (NC) mode.
