SICK IME18-05BPSZC0S 1040934 Inductive Proximity Sensor M18 PNP 5mm

SICK IME18-05BPSZC0S is a standard cylindrical inductive proximity sensor from the IME series. M18 × 1 threaded housing with flush (shielded) mounting design. Detects all metals at a 5 mm sensing range. PNP output with NO function, 3‑wire DC, M12 4‑pin male connector. Nickel‑plated brass housing rated IP67, 10‑30 V DC, 1 kHz switching frequency, –25 °C to +75 °C operating temperature. Suitable for position detection, metal part presence, counting, and end‑limit sensing in industrial automation.

Applications:

• Metal part presence and position detection on automated assembly lines
