IMB08-02BPSVU2S: 1072683 - Sick M8 Flush Inductive Sensor

The Sick IMB08-02BPSVU2S is built with a compact M8 x 1 cylindrical housing and a diameter of 8 mm, making it an excellent choice for tight machine spaces. This flush-mounted Inductive Sensor provides a precise sensing range of 2 mm and a safe sensing margin of 1.62 mm, ensuring accuracy even in high-speed automation lines. Operating at a switching frequency of 4,000 Hz, it is well-suited for rapid detection cycles and motion-critical systems such as conveyors, rotary tables, and packaging machines.

Engineered with robust industrial-grade features, the sensor uses a 2-meter cable connection for flexible installation and supports DC 3-wire PNP wiring with Normally Open (NO) output. Its rugged enclosure is rated at IP68 and IP69K, making it resistant to high-pressure cleaning, dust ingress, and immersion in coolant or oil. Additional features such as IO-Link compatibility and a visual adjustment indicator make integration and troubleshooting straightforward. This model is optimized for harsh environments including zones with coolant lubricants, mobile machinery, and temperature-sensitive applications, ensuring minimal downtime and consistent sensor performance.

The Sick WL4S-3F2130 Photoelectric Sensor is designed for precision object detection in challenging environments where reflectivity and color variation impact standard sensors. It uses red LED background suppression technology, enabling reliable detection of dark, transparent, or glossy surfaces with consistent accuracy.

This sensor is ideal for use in conveyor systems, bottling lines, and automated inspection units. Maintenance engineers particularly value its plug-and-play design, as it reduces calibration time and avoids false triggers. The sensor’s slim and rugged housing fits easily into confined equipment areas, while its background suppression ensures stable readings in dynamic lighting or high-speed setups.

Across manufacturing, packaging, and material handling operations, the WL4S-3F2130 proves essential for ensuring consistent throughput and minimizing sensor failures. It helps engineers reduce machine stoppages and manual inspection efforts, offering long-term operational savings. This model is a smart choice for engineers who demand both accuracy and durability from their sensing solutions.
