Telemecanique XSAV11373 Inductive Proximity Sensor

The XSAV11373 is an inductive proximity sensor developed for industrial automation and machine safety systems. As a member of the Schneider Electric OsiSense XS series, it delivers reliable, contactless detection of metallic objects in demanding environments. This sensor plays a critical role in enhancing system performance, reducing mechanical wear, and increasing operational efficiency.

Key Features

  • Non-contact detection: Uses electromagnetic induction to detect metal objects without physical contact, minimizing mechanical wear and tear.

  • Robust housing: Designed with a durable and compact metal body, making it suitable for harsh industrial conditions.

  • High switching frequency: Ensures rapid response, ideal for high-speed automation processes.

  • IP67 protection: Dust-tight and resistant to temporary immersion in water, making it suitable for outdoor or wet environments.

  • Easy installation: Features a cylindrical design with standard mounting options for quick and secure installation.

Applications

The XSAV11373 is widely used across various sectors of industrial automation and manufacturing:

  • Conveyor systems: For detecting object presence, positioning, and controlling automated sorting or packaging lines.

  • Machine tools: To monitor moving parts or tool positions in CNC machines.

  • Automated assembly lines: Ensures correct placement and movement of metal components.

  • Safety interlocks: As part of machine guarding systems, it detects the position of protective covers or doors.

  • Material handling: For position sensing in robotic arms, elevators, or automated storage systems.

Function and Role

The core function of the XSAV11373 is to detect the presence or absence of metal objects within a defined sensing range. It emits an electromagnetic field and detects changes caused by nearby metal, triggering a switching signal without physical contact. This allows it to serve as a key element in process automation, ensuring precise object detection, reliable system feedback, and minimal maintenance requirements.
