SICK Inductive Barrel Proximity Sensor, M8, 8 mm Detection, PNP, 10 → 30 V dc

IMX offers four times the sensing range of conventional sensors, setting a new standard for inductive proximity sensors. Sensing ranges of up to 50 mm ensure a higher process performance - making IMX ideal for applications that were previously inconceivable with inductive sensors. In space-critical applications, IMX sensors save installation space by using smaller designs.

At the same time, the greater distance reduces mechanical damage. The rugged, durable design ensures less downtimes, stable processes and high plant availability.

Less installation space required than for larger standard sensors with comparable sensing ranges
Reduced risk of mechanical damage due to larger mounting distance from the target object
Avoidance of incorrect switching and more stable processes thanks to high operating reserves
Low mutual interference, several sensors can be installed close to each other
Higher degree of standardization by using the same sensors for different applications
Quick and easy commissioning thanks to visual adjustment indicator and no need for prior parameterization
Long sensor service life thanks to rugged and durable design
