SICK Threaded Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensor M12 x 1 PNP Output 30V DC 8 mm Detection Range IME12-08NPSZW2K

SICK IME12-08NPSZW2K threaded barrel Inductive Proximity Sensor delivers precise and reliable metal object detection with an 8 mm sensing distance. It features a robust nickel-plated brass cylindrical housing designed for industrial environments requiring high durability and resistance to harsh conditions. The sensor uses a PNP output configuration operating at a maximum of 30 V DC and supports a switching current of up to 200 mA.

With a compact size of 44 mm length and 12 mm diameter, this sensor is ideal for space-constrained automated machinery and conveyor systems. Its IP67 rating ensures ingress protection against dust and water, making it suitable for demanding industrial and manufacturing applications.

Operating reliably between -25°C and +75°C, the sensor supports fast response tasks with a switching frequency of 2 kHz. The unshielded design is optimized specifically for metal detection tasks in automated production lines, robotics, packaging, and assembly processes.

Additional protective features such as short-circuit and reverse polarity safeguards enhance operational durability and electrical safety. Installation is simplified through its threaded barrel mount, designed for non-flush applications requiring robust and easy fitting.
