IFM IFS210 Inductive Sensor – IFB3004BBPKG/M/AS-514-TPS

The IFM IFS210 is a robust, flush-mountable inductive proximity sensor designed for precise, non-contact detection of metallic objects in demanding industrial environments. With a sensing range of 4 mm, PNP normally open output, and enhanced EMC protection, it offers high reliability in applications such as factory automation, material handling, and machine tool systems. Housed in a compact M12 x 1 brass body with a white bronze coating and gold-plated contacts, the IFS210 ensures long-term durability, superior electrical performance, and resistance to corrosion—all sealed to IP67 for reliable operation in harsh conditions.
