EXTON, PA – July 28, 2006 – ifm efector’s new line of IMC rectangular inductive proximity sensors feature extended sensing ranges for rugged industrial automation applications. The sensor can be placed farther away from the target which provides protection against mechanical damage in applications such as conveying. Depending on the model, sensing ranges are 20mm flush, 35mm non-flush, and 40mm non-flush.The compact sensor “cube” measures 40x40x66mm and features a sensing face that rotates in one of five different directions. An integrated mounting bracket offers simple installation and the sensor’s Micro DC connector rotates 270 degrees for optimal mounting versatility.
Two corner-mounted, highly visible LEDs indicate power and switching status.IMC proximity sensors are three-wire, PNP normally open units that are reverse polarity protected.
List price ranges from $75.00 to $77.00 (U.S.). ifm efector inc. is a premier technology partner for sensors and controls.
Products include proximity switches, photoelectric sensors, fiber optics, condition monitors, speed monitors, pressure sensors, flow sensors, temperature sensors, level sensors, valve position sensors, mobile control solutions, ID systems, AS-i networking and Safety at Work products.
