The inductive IY/IZ type sensors from ifm are used in various industrial areas where space is limited, for example in machine tools, assembly automation and electronics production. They detect end positions of small grippers and clamps, and can be used to accurately monitor the speed of gears and rotary movements.
Longer sensing range for stable processes
The longer sensing range makes it easy to position the sensors. The position detection is reliable, even in case of mechanical tolerance, avoiding accidental switching. This increases the process reliability.
Installation
The M5 thread makes it easy to screw in the IY housing. The IZ housing has a 4 mm smooth sleeve and can be fastened precisely and efficiently using the corresponding holder.
IP67 protection rating for challenging environmental conditions
The robust housing has been specially developed for demanding industrial environments, and offers durability and reliability. Thanks to the IP67 protection rating, the sensors guarantee reliable performance even under extreme conditions such as dust, moisture and vibration. This improves process stability and efficiency in various industrial sectors.
