Product Overview
Balluff's BES 00P7 (model BES 516-324-G-E5-C-S49) provides non-contact metallic target detection in a compact M8x1 threaded stainless steel barrel. Built for flush mounting with a 2.0 mm sensing distance, this inductive switch delivers a PNP normally open (NO) output across a 10 to 30 VDC supply range. Rated for switching frequencies up to 5000 Hz with an IP68-rated seal and an integrated 3-pin M8 male plug, it handles fast-cycling automated equipment and harsh industrial workcells.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the pinout for the 3-pin M8 connector?
The standard M8 3-pin configuration for this Balluff DC 3-wire sensor connects pin 1 to positive supply (+10-30 VDC), pin 3 to negative supply (0 VDC), and pin 4 to the PNP switching output.
Is a mating cable or cordset included?
Not included.
What condition is this sensor in, and has it been tested?
This sensor is in used condition with clean barrel threads, intact connector pins, and attached mounting hardware. Evaluation is visual inspection only; function testing has not been performed.
Nothing steadies a high-speed automation line quite like an M8 proximity switch doing its quiet, five-thousand-cycle-a-second job. Thread it into place, cinch the lock nuts, and let your controller know exactly where the metal landed.
