IFM IE5203 IEK2001-FRKG/US-104 Inductive Sensor

Product overview

The ifm IE5203 (IEK2001-FRKG/US-104) is an inductive proximity sensor in an M8 x 1 threaded housing 60 mm long, for flush mounting. Its rated sensing range is 1 mm. The real sensing range is 1 mm ± 10% and the operating distance on steel is 0…0.81 mm. The PNP/NPN switching output is selectable as normally open or normally closed, rated at 100 mA and up to 2000 Hz on 5…30 V DC, with short-circuit protection. On other metals the distance is reduced by ifm's correction factors: 0.7 for stainless steel, 0.3 for brass, 0.3 for aluminum and 0.1 for copper. The sensor has a white-bronze-coated brass housing with an orange LCP sensing face, connects through an M12 connector (A-coded, 2 contacts) and is rated IP67 for -25…80 °C ambient. It has UL approval under file E174191. Two lock nuts are included.
