Inductive proximity sensor IMX - SICK

Inductive sensors with quadruple sensing range for large distances in industrial environments.
Significantly greater distances: IMX offers four times the sensing range of conventional sensors, setting a new standard for inductive proximity sensors. Sensing ranges of up to 50 mm ensure a higher process performance - making IMX ideal for applications that were previously inconceivable with inductive sensors. In space-critical applications, IMX sensors save installation space by using smaller designs. At the same time, the greater distance reduces mechanical damage. The rugged, durable design ensures less downtimes, stable processes, and high plant availability.

Advantages

Less installation space required than for larger standard sensors with comparable sensing ranges;
Reduced risk of mechanical damage due to a larger mounting distance from the target object;
Avoidance of incorrect switching and more stable processes thanks to high operating reserves;
Low mutual interference, several sensors can be installed close to each other;
Higher degree of standardization by using the same sensors for different applications;
Quick and easy commissioning thanks to the visual adjustment indicator and no need for prior parameterization;
Long sensor service life thanks to rugged and durable design.
