SICK IME12-04BNSZW2S Proximity Sensor | Inductive, M12, 4mm, PNP, NO, 2m Cable

SICK IME12-04BNSZW2S sensor specifications. Inductive proximity sensor, M12 housing, 4mm range, PNP output, normally open, 2m PVC cable.

Product Overview

The SICK IME12-04BNSZW2S is an inductive proximity sensor designed for non-contact detection of metallic objects. It features an M12 cylindrical threaded housing, a PNP (sourcing) switching output configured as normally open (NO), and a 4mm nominal sensing distance. The sensor includes a 2-meter PVC cable and is built for reliable object detection in industrial automation.

Technical Specifications

Key Features

• Inductive Sensing:​ Detects ferrous and non-ferrous metals without contact

• PNP Output:​ Sourcing output compatible with PLC sinking inputs

• Normally Open (NO):​ Output switches ON when metal target is detected

• M12 Housing:​ Standard industrial threaded barrel

• IP67 Protection:​ Dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion

• 2m Integral Cable:​ Ready for direct wiring

• Status LED:​ Visual indication of switching state

• High Switching Frequency:​ Up to 1 kHz for fast object detection

• Stainless Steel Housing:​ Corrosion-resistant for harsh environments

Applications

• End-position sensing for cylinders and actuators

• Presence detection of machine parts and workpieces

• Counting and positioning tasks

• General object detection in metalworking and assembly

• Conveyor and material handling systems

Important Notes

1. This sensor detects both ferrous and non-ferrous metals; sensing distance may vary with material.

2. PNP output supplies positive voltage when active; ensure compatibility with the control system input.

3. Normally Open (NO) means the output is inactive (off) when no target is present.

4. The sensor is not certified for use in hazardous (explosive) atmospheres.

5. Ensure operating voltage is within 10-30V DC and correct polarity is observed.
