IFM IG5813 IGA3005-BPKG/V4A/US

ifm Inductive Proximity Sensor

Description

The ifm IG5813 (IGA3005-BPKG/V4A/US) is a high-performance inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable detection of metal objects in industrial settings. Its M30 threaded body is constructed from high-grade V4A stainless steel, offering excellent resistance to corrosion and aggressive media. This makes it particularly suitable for use in the food and beverage industry, chemical plants, and other demanding environments. The sensor provides a 5 mm flush-mountable sensing range and features a flexible PNP output that can be programmed as either normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC).
