Full-metal inductive sensors for heavy-duty applications
The perfect solution for harsh environments
In food and beverage manufacturing, fast temperature changes and aggressive cleaning chemicals stress inductive sensors. In machining applications, coolants and lubricants continuously flow on and around sensors. In the steel and automotive industries, sensors are exposed to weld spatter, mechanical shock and vibration, and abrasion.
The full-metal design of ifm’s inductive sensors provides robust protection in these harsh, heavy-duty applications.
- Short body versions for tight spaces
- Wide temperature resistance -40…85 °C
- IP69K ingress protection
- High-quality stainless steel is safe in food and beverage manufacturing
- Resists impact on the face up to 1 joule for reliable operation in high shock and vibration applications
- Excellent price / performance ratio
The sensing range of ifm’s inductive proximity switches far surpass competitors’ traditional metal-face sensors as shown in the comparison below.
