General Product Description
The IFM IFT200 is a high quality inductive proximity sensor designed for the precise detection of metal objects in industrial automation applications. It features a standard M12 threaded housing which makes it universally compatible with a wide range of mounting brackets and machinery. This sensor operates using non contact technology which eliminates mechanical wear and ensures a long operational service life even in high cycle applications.
Performance and Sensing Range
This model provides a reliable nominal sensing range of 4 millimeters which allows for accurate position feedback in various mechanical assemblies. It is engineered with high switching frequencies that enable it to capture fast moving targets with exceptional accuracy. The device operates on a DC voltage supply and typically utilizes a PNP switching output which is the standard logic for most modern programmable logic controllers used in manufacturing.
Robust Construction
Durability is a core characteristic of the IFT200. The unit is enclosed in a robust metal housing typically made of nickel plated brass which offers excellent resistance to corrosion and physical impact. It is sealed to meet high ingress protection ratings such as IP67 making it fully resistant to dust ingress and temporary immersion in water or exposure to industrial coolants and oils.
Installation and Usability
For ease of installation and maintenance the sensor is equipped with a standard M12 connector interface. This allows for rapid cable replacement and connection without the need to manually wire terminals. It also features a clearly visible LED indicator which provides immediate visual feedback on the switching status aiding technicians significantly during the setup and troubleshooting processes.
