IFM IFS204 induktiivinen lähestymisanturi M12 tasainen PNP NO 4 mm

The IFM IFS204 is a high-quality inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable metal object detection in industrial automation. With a compact M12 threaded barrel and flush mounting capability, this sensor offers precise sensing up to 4 mm. Its robust stainless steel housing (V2A / 1.4305) ensures durability in harsh environments, while the PNP normally open output and M12 connector simplify integration into control systems.

Advantages

Flush mounting allows installation in tight spaces without sacrificing performance. The sensor features short-circuit and reverse polarity protection for enhanced reliability. A yellow LED provides clear switching status indication, and the IP67 rating ensures protection against dust and water ingress.
