IFM IM0056 IM series Inductive sensor

Product overview

The ifm IM0056 (IMC2020BARKA/LS-300BL RT) is an inductive proximity sensor in a rectangular housing measuring 40 x 40 x 66 mm, for flush mounting. Its rated sensing range is 20 mm. The real sensing range is 20 mm ± 10% and the operating distance on steel is 0…16.2 mm. The sensing face can be set to 5 positions. It is a two-wire normally open sensor for 20…140 V AC or 10…140 V DC, with an AC load current of 450 mA and a switching frequency of 25 Hz on AC, or 450 mA and 100 Hz on DC. On other metals the distance is reduced by ifm's correction factors: 0.7 for stainless steel, 0.4 for brass, 0.4 for aluminum and 0.3 for copper. The sensor has a black PPE housing with an orange PPE sensing face, connects through a 7/8-inch connector (A-coded, 3 contacts) and is rated IP67 for -25…70 °C ambient. Supplied with one mounting bracket and one allen key.
