The inductive IY/IZ type sensors from ifm are designed to simplify connection and offer a longer than standard sensing range for accurate and reliable position detection and a high switching frequency for dynamic processes.
The inductive IY/IZ type sensors support process stability in challenging industrial environments.
The sensors are available with an M5 housing or smooth, cylindrical 4 mm housing for confined installation conditions. The M5 thread makes it easy to screw in the IY housing. The IZ housing with a smooth 4 mm sleeve can be fastened precisely and efficiently using the corresponding holder.
The robust housing matches demanding industrial environments. The sensors can be used in various industrial areas where space is limited, in machine tools, for example, as well as automated assembly systems and electronics production. They detect end positions of small grippers and clamps and can be used to monitor speed of gears and rotary movements accurately.
Supporting stable processes
The longer sensing range makes it easy to position the sensors. Position detection is reliable even where mechanical tolerances are in play, preventing accidental switching. This increases process stability and consistency.
The robust housing has been specially developed to ensure durability and reliability in demanding industrial environments. With an IP67 protection rating, the sensors deliver reliable performance even under extreme conditions where dust, moisture and vibrations are present. Thus, they improve process stability and efficiency in various industrial sectors.
