The ifm electronic Inductive sensor with metal thread M18 x 1 offers an increased switching distance of 8 mm and can be installed flush. It is equipped with a connection cable and plug connection and works with an operating voltage of 10 to 30 V DC. The sensor is available in both DC PNP and NPN versions and protects against reverse polarity and short circuits. Its outputs are normally open, with a voltage drop of less than 2.5 V, a minimum load current of 2 mA, and a current carrying capacity of up to 100 mA. The sensor also offers protection against overload and meets protection class III.

Suitable for industrial, mobile, cooling and lubricating applications
High protection rating for the requirements of harsh industrial environments
Flexible use thanks to large operating temperature range
Safe detection due to large sensing range and low sensor tolerances
Reduced storage due to wide range of applications
