Balluff BES 516-326-E5-C-S4 Inductive Sensor

The inductive sensor from Balluff (model BES 516-326-E5-C-S4) is designed for reliable detection of metal objects in industrial environments. With its robust construction and standardized S4 interface, it allows for easy integration into existing automation systems. The housing material and high protection class ensure durability, even under demanding operating conditions such as vibrations and moisture. The high switching frequency and precise detection range make this sensor an ideal choice for applications requiring accurate position detection or presence monitoring. Connectivity via the S4 interface enables fast data transmission and easy parameterization. The power supply is provided by a voltage source in the range of 10 to 30 V DC, with a typical output current of up to 100 mA. This sensor is widely used in factory automation, mechanical engineering, and conveyor technology, where it is employed for controlling movements, monitoring production steps, or as a safety sensor. It is particularly suitable for detecting metal parts in automated production lines and assembly lines. Procurement and spare parts ordering can be done directly using the article number BES00R6.
