The TL-W5F1 is a flat-face inductive proximity sensor intended as a replacement or compatible unit for TL-W series / W3MC1-family metal sensing applications. It provides a nominal 5 mm sensing distance to detect metal targets without contact, a 3-wire PNP normally-open output, and operates from a 10-30 V DC supply. Distributor listings commonly show a pre-wired cable (often 2 m) and IP67-style protection for use in dusty or wet industrial environments. Because model and wiring variants exist across TL-W family listings, verify the exact model code, cable length, and output polarity against your equipment before installation.
- compatibility reference model: TL-W5F1 replacement sensor for TL-W series flat inductive proximity sensors; compatible with TL-W family and W3MC1-series targets verify fit for your device before ordering.
- Sensing specification: nominal 5 mm (0.197") detection distance for metal targets with a flat/mini-flat sensing face ideal for tight mounting clearances.
- Electrical & output: 3-wire PNP, normally-open (NO) output; rated for 10-30 V DC supply typical of TL-W series industrial sensors.
- Package note: sold as a single sensor unit. Many listings show a pre-wired cable (commonly 2 m); confirm exact cable length and connector/wiring variant on the product page before installation.
- Replacement sensor listing; instrument family and connector format stated in the title and specs.
Compatibility check: Verify the exact model, form, fit, connector, voltage/current ratings, and application before ordering.
