SICK Threaded Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensor M12 x 1, NPN Output, 30 V DC, 4 mm Detection Range IMF12-04BNSNC0S

SICK IMF12-04BNSNC0S is a high-performance Threaded Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensor with a metal detection range of 4 mm and NPN output, operating at 30 V DC. The sensor's stainless steel housing and M12 x 1 thread size make it suitable for robust industrial use, especially in harsher environments that require high ingress protection ratings IP68 and IP69K.

This sensor supports a wide operating temperature from -40°C to +100°C, allowing deployment in diverse conditions, including food processing where hygiene and resistance to industrial cleaning agents are essential. The sensor comes equipped with a 4-pin terminal type and is shielded to minimize electrical noise, ensuring reliable sensor outputs at switching currents up to 200 mA and switching frequencies up to 2 kHz.

Built on SICK ASIC technology, the IMF12 series ensures extended sensing ranges and superior accuracy compared to standard inductive sensors. It also supports IO-Link protocol, enabling advanced networking capabilities for flexible automation solutions.

The compact sensor length of 65 mm and width of 12 mm allow fitting in space-constrained applications. The product holds certifications including ISO 20653:2013-03, EN 60947-5-2, and EN 60529, affirming its compliance with rigorous industrial standards. Manufactured in Hungary, this sensor combines durability, precision, and versatility for industrial, food processing, automation, and manufacturing environments.

The sensor features a durable stainless steel threaded barrel housing sized M12 x 1 for flush mounting. Designed for industrial environments, it supports an operating temperature range from -40°C to 100°C. Rated IP68 and IP69K, it provides excellent protection against dust and high-pressure water jets.

Supports a maximum supply voltage of 30 V DC and a switching current up to 200 mA. The sensor utilizes SICK ASIC technology for extended sensing ranges and high accuracy. Equipped with a 4-pin terminal and shielded design for stable signal output and reduced interference.

Communication flexibility is enhanced through IO-Link compatibility. Its compact 65 mm length and 12 mm width body ensure easy integration in tight spaces. Certified to standards ISO 20653:2013-03, EN 60947-5-2, and EN 60529 for quality and safety.

Ideal for food industry applications, it resists frequent industrial cleaning agents and is Ecolab-certified. Explore the SICK Inductive Proximity Sensor range and related sensors for industrial automation at EnvMart.
