IFM ID/IM Series Inductive Proximity Sensor Switch

Technical Features

The ID and IM series have an extended sensing range, which can reduce failures caused by mechanical damage and extend uptime.

The sensing face of the IM series “Cube” can be rotated in 5 different directions for flexible application.

The IM “Cube” can easily retrofit limit switches using only half the space.

Uses K=1 sensor technology, providing the same sensing range for all target materials.

ID devices are equipped with a terminal box for convenient wiring of different lengths.

Benefits introduce In Detail

Rugged Enclosure for Industrial Applications

IM Cube inductive proximity switches have an extended detection range and are suitable for demanding industrial automation applications. This series of proximity switches can be placed away from objects to prevent mechanical damage during transportation and other applications.

IM “Cube” proximity switches are an ideal choice for packaging production lines and transportation applications, providing two corner-mounted LED indicators for power and output.

Compact Form Factor and Large Detection Range

“Cube” compact proximity switches have dimensions of only 40 x 40 x 66 mm, and the sensing surface can be rotated in up to 5 different directions, achieving flexible application. The integrated mounting bracket allows for simple installation, and the proximity switch can be rotated in up to 5 different directions, enabling flexible application.

ID devices are an ideal choice for ground transportation applications. ID also features a “mechanical quick disconnect” function, allowing them to be snapped onto mounting brackets or DIN rails, so that any damaged proximity switch can be replaced in seconds.
