Sick IM18 Series Inductive Barrel-Style Inductive Proximity Sensor, M18 x 1, 8 mm Detection, NPN Output, 10 → 30

The most important requirements for inductive sensors are precision, maximum availability, and a long service life. The inductive IM sensors pack high technology into the smallest of spaces. The integrated ASIC chip enables digital adjustment after the end of the manufacturing process. The saving of values in the ASIC ensures highly precise switching points and very high repeatability of values – for any number of production runs.

IME sensors are completely encapsulated with hot melt technology, which increases these sensors’ life under shock and vibration. The customer benefits from high positioning accuracy in the machine and long term reliability.
