Where it sits in the control system
The BOS014Z is the device-level element in a Balluff industrial component installation. It receives the field signals and control supply listed above — 10 ... 30 VDC — and switches or conditions the load within the the rated ratings shown in the Specifications table. Wiring and protective devices are sized to those same numbers, not to a generic assumption.
Typical installations place it in control panels, machine builds, spare-part replacements, where the unit is matched to the original catalog number and the enclosure provides M8x1 threaded tubular housing, brass nickel-plated, PMMA sensing surface support. Record the catalog number and revision from the nameplate of the installed unit before specifying a like-for-like spare.
Before you specify
-
Ratings. Confirm the rated current and voltage match the circuit before specifying; sizing from the nameplate avoids field mismatch.
-
Mounting. Check the M8x1 threaded tubular housing, brass nickel-plated, PMMA sensing surface fit against the existing enclosure before ordering.
-
Marking. Record the catalog number and revision from the nameplate of the installed unit for a like-for-like spare.
Technical FAQ
Q.What supply does this device require?
It requires 10 ... 30 VDC. Size the supply source to the same rating shown in the Specifications table.
Q.How is this device mounted?
It mounts by M8x1 threaded tubular housing, brass nickel-plated, PMMA sensing surface. Confirm the cutout or rail before ordering a like-for-like spare.
Q.What I/O or output configuration does it provide?
It provides NPN, NO. Match this to the existing wiring before substituting.
Q.What is the operating temperature range?
The confirmed operating range is -10 ... +60 C. Panels running beyond it need derated sizing.
Q.Is this catalog number still in production, and what replaces it?
It is discontinued by the manufacturer; the current-production replacement is BOS01RY (BOS 08E-NS-PR20-02). Cross-reference by function and ratings, not by label alone.
