SICK Block Inductive Proximity Sensor PNP Flush Mount Brass Housing 30 V dc 200mA IQ05-0B8PS-ZUP

The SICK IQ05-0B8PS-ZUP is a block-style inductive proximity sensor designed for industrial automation and control applications. Featuring a compact rectangular form factor with a brass housing, it is designed for flush mounting, allowing the sensing face to be level with surrounding surfaces to avoid interference and protrusion. It is engineered to detect metal objects with a maximum sensing range of 0.8 mm.

Operating from a 30 V dc supply, this sensor delivers a PNP output capable of sourcing 200 mA, facilitating direct control of loads and input to receiving devices. It supports switching frequencies up to 5 kHz, making it suitable for rapid event detection in automated processes.

The sensor body is machined from brass, providing mechanical robustness and moderate corrosion resistance. Its unshielded design produces a broader sensing field but requires careful installation to avoid cross-interference with adjacent sensors or metal objects.

Rated to IP67 standards, the sensor offers excellent protection against dust ingress and can withstand immersion in liquids, ensuring reliable operation in harsh industrial environments. It functions reliably within a temperature range of -25 °C to 70 °C, covering typical ambient conditions found in factory automation and control systems.

Typical applications include presence detection on automated metal press lines, edge sensing in compact pick-and-place machinery, end-of-travel detection on small actuators, metal part counting on conveyor systems, and interfacing with programmable logic controllers (PLCs) requiring fast switching inputs.

Detects metal targets with a sensing distance of up to 0.8 mm for precise operation. Flush mount design integrates seamlessly in panels or brackets for concealed installation. Robust brass housing suits mechanical and corrosive industrial environments.

PNP output provides sourcing current of 200 mA directly to load devices. High switching frequency of 5 kHz supports rapid signal changes. IP67 rated housing ensures ingress protection against dust and water. Operational temperature range from -25 °C to 70 °C supports many industrial settings.

Unshielded sensor requires adequate spacing but provides a larger sensing field. Ideal for automation, manufacturing, and control applications detecting metal objects.
