Datasheet - IMI18-08BPOVC0S

COO (Country of Origin):: HU

Overview

In contrast to conventional proximity sensors, whose sensing face consists of plastic, the IMI inductive proximity sensors have a closed housing made completely of stainless steel. This feature makes the IMI ideal for use in challenging applications with mechanical and chemical loads, for instance shocks, quick temperature changes, daily cleaning with aggressive media, the effect of cooling lubricants. In addition, the IMI offers large sensing ranges and IO-Link communication.

This ensure process stability and high plant availability as well as flexible and cost-optimized implementation of application solutions.
