Product Description

The IFM Inductive Cylindrical Proximity Sensor (MPN IIS242) is a shielded, 3-wire cylindrical sensor with a non-terminated cable, operating on a 10-30V DC supply voltage with PNP output. This sensor is rated for DC supply only, with no AC supply rating.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the IFM IIS242 inductive proximity sensor used for?

The IFM IIS242 is a shielded cylindrical proximity sensor used for non-contact detection of metal objects in industrial automation, such as position sensing, part presence, and machine control. It operates on 10-30V DC with PNP output, making it suitable for PLC and controller inputs.

What are the specifications of the IFM IIS242 sensor?

The IFM IIS242 is a shielded, 3-wire cylindrical proximity sensor with a non-terminated cable. It has a DC supply voltage rating of 10-30V DC, PNP output, and is not rated for AC supply. The manufacturer part number is IIS242.

Where to buy the IFM IIS242 proximity sensor worldwide?

3G Electric supplies the IFM IIS242 inductive proximity sensor worldwide. As a global industrial solutions provider, we handle full logistics and customs clearance to deliver this sensor to your facility. Contact us for availability and lead time.

How to install the IFM IIS242 shielded proximity sensor?

Mount the IFM IIS242 sensor securely in a metal bracket, ensuring the shielded design reduces interference. Connect the 3 wires: brown to 10-30V DC positive, blue to negative, and black to the PNP input. Avoid overtightening and keep the sensing face free of debris.
