Inductive Proximity Sensor – IMA18-10BE1ZC0K

The IMA18-10BE1ZC0K from the IMA series is a high-performance analog inductive proximity sensor designed for precise non-contact distance measurement. Engineered with a quasi-flush installation design, this M18 sensor offers a sensing range of up to 10 mm and delivers both 0–10 V voltage output and 4–20 mA current output, ensuring seamless integration into analog processing systems.

With outstanding resolution (≤ 2 µm) and repeatability (±0.02 mm), it’s ideal for applications where precision and reliability are crucial. The robust chromium-plated brass housing and IP67 rating guarantee durability in harsh industrial environments. Additionally, the sensor features triple sensing range capabilities, making it a versatile choice for automation and positioning applications.
