Turck M08 Series — Inductive Sensors for Every Application:

Turck’s M08 Series offers the usual Turck precision to fit perfectly in the narrowest of spaces. The fully re-developed sensor electronics and supplied lengths of 15, 22, 30 and 40 millimeters ensure that you will always find a model in the right size. The portfolio even includes an ultra-short 15-millimeter version for the first time. On the connection side, M12 or M08 connectors, and devices with cable output are available for all typical connection variants. The electrical variant – available with 3 or 4-wire connection as a NO contact or changeover contact in PNP or NPN – also ensures the perfect electrical connection for your application.

The M08 Series includes versions for every application, from 40 mm length (M08E), 30 mm (M08) and 22 mm (M08K), through to the ultra-compact 15-mm version (M08KK) for the smallest of spaces. All devices offer long sensing distances and protection against short-circuit and reverse polarity. The modular design concept of the sensors enables an extensive portfolio with increased sensing ranges and models from 40 to 15 mm. Sensors in M08 designs are typically used when space in the machine or plant is restricted, although a certain amount of freedom for adjustment is still required. For the M08 Series, Turck has fully revised the ferrite core technology, which increases sensing ranges up to 50 percent. The flush versions now offer an extended sensing range of 3 millimeters alongside the existing 2 mm version, and the non-flush sensors are now available in 3 or 5 millimeter versions.

Features:

The portfolio has been extended with additional threaded barrel lengths: In addition to the existing designs M08K (22 mm) and M08E (40 mm), the offering now also includes the models M08 (30 mm) and M08KK (15 mm)

Brass threaded barrel with increased wall thickness offers best protection of sensor electronics

Highly flexible cable reduces cable failures in mobile use, e.g. when used on E-Chain

One-piece metal housing prevents damage at joints

Clear switching status display, even in poor conditions

Cable devices with 360° LED display clearly visible from all angles, and translucent end cap

New, brighter LEDs for plug connection devices
Long switching distance for inductive ferrite core sensors in M08 design

Enables realization of a wide range of applications even without the use of larger M12 sensors

Extremely short variants with a minimum sensor length of 15 mm
