Sick IMA Series Inductive Barrel-Style Inductive Proximity Sensor, M18 x 1, 8 mm Detection, Analogue Output, 15

The IMA inductive analogue sensors give out a current or voltage signal which is in proportional relation to the distance from the sensor to the metal target. They are therefore optimally suited for monitoring travel paths, positions or even differentiating between spaces and material variants.

These sensors are characterized by extremely large detection ranges up to 40 mm, high accuracy, precision and no blind areas.

Types: M8 to M30
Extended detection ranges: 0 mm to 40 mm
Analog output signal 0 V ... 10 V and 4 mA ... 20 mA
Enclosure rating: IP 67
Temperature range: –25 °C to +75 °C
Nickel-plated brass housing

High positioning accuracy
No mechanical add-on parts required for monitoring of great distances
Less space required for the same sensing range when compared with standard sensors
Less storage due to reduced multiplicity of types on account of integrated current and voltage interface
Large detection areas
