ifm ifm IV5004 inductive linear position sensor and switch

Rectangular inductive sensors and rectangular inductive sensors are particularly suitable for conveying applications due to their sensing range. To meet the requirements of harsh industrial environments,each model is equipped with a rugged plastic housing with a high level of protection. The sensing surface of the type IM sensor (40 x 40 mm) can be rotated in five different positions for flexible installation even in unfavorable installation conditions. The two corner LEDs are clearly visible in any mounting position.,the inductive sensors of the I1 and I2 series have a large sensing area and a particularly sensing range. The sensing range can be easily set using a potentiometer. This will prevent the sensor from detecting machine parts in the background. At the slab position of the steel mill,metal plates or metal blocks are detected. The sensor works just as reliably in these environments as it does in shearing or cutting applications.
