Product Description

The IFM Inductive Cylindrical Proximity Sensor (MPN IFS258) is a shielded, 3-wire cylindrical sensor with a non-terminated cable, operating on a 10-30V DC supply voltage. It features NPN output and is designed for industrial proximity sensing applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the IFM IFS258 inductive proximity sensor used for?

The IFM IFS258 is a shielded cylindrical proximity sensor used for non-contact detection of metal objects in industrial automation, such as position sensing, part presence verification, and machine tool monitoring. Its NPN output and 10-30V DC supply suit PLC and controller inputs in manufacturing and packaging lines.

What are the specifications of the IFM IFS258 sensor?

The IFM IFS258 is a shielded, 3-wire cylindrical proximity sensor with a non-terminated cable. It operates on 10-30V DC supply voltage, features NPN output, and is not rated for AC supply. The manufacturer part number is IFS258, and it is designed for industrial proximity sensing applications.

Where to buy the IFM IFS258 sensor worldwide?

3G Electric supplies the IFM IFS258 inductive proximity sensor worldwide. As a global industrial equipment distributor, we handle full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to your location. Contact us to source this sensor for your automation needs.

How to install the IFM IFS258 proximity sensor?

Mount the IFM IFS258 sensor securely in a metal-free zone to avoid interference, connect the 3 wires (brown to 10-30V DC, blue to ground, black to NPN input), and verify the sensing distance per the datasheet. Ensure the shielded design is grounded if used near metal. Test with a metal target before commissioning.
