ifm IM5116, Inductive Block Proximity Sensor, 35 mm Detection, PNP NO, 10 → 36 V dc
The rectangular inductive sensor IM5116 from ifm electronic operates with a supply voltage of 10-36 V DC. A NO PNP contact is available as an output. The active surface can be aligned in 5 positions. With a sensing range of 35 mm with non-flush installation the inductive sensor IM5116 is available with a temperature range of - 25-70 °C at a switching frequency of 80 kHz. Thanks to the high protection rating of IP67 and the common M12 connector the inductive sensor IM5116 can be used in all applications without challenging environmental requirements. Bild: IM5163
