SICK IQ08-04NPSKT0S Rectangular Inductive Proximity Sensor PNP IQ08 30V 4 mm 30 V dc 200mA

SICK IQY Series Proximity Sensor, 4mm Maximum Detection, 30V Maximum Supply Voltage - IQ08-04NPSKT0S

This proximity sensor detects metal objects without contact and is built for industrial sensing in automated systems. Encased in a Compact rectangular plastic body, it is suited to applications requiring a small footprint and robust environmental protection.

Features and Benefits:

• Non-flush mounting delivers reliable detection in surface-mounted setups
  PNP output simplifies connection to common control architectures
  4mm sensing range permits precise object presence checks
  200mA switching current supports moderate load devices
  2kHz switching frequency enables Rapid Pulse detection
  IP67 and IP68 ingress ratings ensure operation in wet environments

Applications

• Suitable for position sensing on assembly-line fixtures
  Ideal for conveyor item presence detection
  Used for metal part counting in automated cells
  Can be used for machine safety interlocks with compatible circuits
  Used with PLC inputs in Compact control panels

What electrical supply constraints should I observe?

Operate the device within the specified maximum supply voltage of 30V to prevent overvoltage stress on internal electronics.

How does temperature affect deployment limits?

The sensor functions across an ambient range from -25°C to 75°C
plan for this when locating it near heat sources or in cold environments.

What connector and wiring format does it use?

It terminates in a 3-pin M8 Terminal which facilitates standardised field cabling and quick installation.

Is the sensor suitable for detecting non-metallic targets?

Detection is limited to metallic materials
non-metallic objects will not trigger sensing.
