Extremely resistant tochemical influences and temperature shocks.
Tested to
extremes:
Market maturity is
ensured by a pro-
gramme of severe
tests: temperature
cycle, steam boiler,
vibration, shock
and temperature
shock tests.
For hygienicand wet areas
In hygienic and wet areas such as
the food industry, sensors are
subjected to extreme operating
conditions. The housing can be
permanently wetted with aggres-
sive cleaning agents. For steam
cleaning the sensors do not only
have to be absolutely ingress-
resistant but also resistant to
temperature shocks.
Another requirement is a food-
grade housing material.
The T series from ifm electronic
meets all these requirements.
Resistant: Temperature range up to
100 C trouble-free use in hot processes
or cleaning operations.
Ingress-protected: Protection rating IP 67 /
IP 68 / IP 69 K the full-metal sensors are
suited for extreme applications such as
high-pressure cleaning or permanently
wet environment.
Free from corrosion: Threaded body and
sensing face of high-grade stainless steel
or PEEK, therefore resistant to aggressive
chemical influences.
Identifiable: Lasered type label the
sensors can still be clearly identified evenafter several years.
Connection technology: ecolink EVT
the ideal connector for hygienic and wet
areas. High-quality PVC cables and
housing materials, high-grade stainless
steel coupling nuts and the high protec-
tion rating IP 67 / IP 68 and IP 69 K form a
sealed system together with the sensor.

For industrialapplications
Extremely resistant tomechanical wear.
Tested to extremes:
Before the sensors
are mature for the
market they must
undergo a test
marathon to prove
their reliability:
vibration test, shock
test, wire-brush
test or impact test.
Sensors for the metal-processing
and automotive industries must
be tough and largely resistant to
mechanical stress.
The full-metal sensors of the
R series operate reliably even
after more than 500,000 impacts
and more than one million cycles
in the shock test.
The sensing face has a special
coating where weld spatter does
not stick. Ideal prerequisites for
reliable operation.
Insensitive: The special non-stick coating
allows weld spatter to roll off the sensor
and enables easy and quick cleaning.
Free from corrosion: Threaded body and
sensing face of high-grade stainless steel,
therefore protected against mechanical
stress.
Heat resistant: Thanks to the temperature
range of 0...85 C even critical tempera-
tures can be handled.
Identifiable: Lasered type label the
sensors can still be clearly identified even
after several years.
Connection technology: ecolink EVW
distinguished by their weld slag resistantnuts and cables. These special cables are
also suited for drag chains and torsional
movements. An unbeatable team togeth-
er with full-metal sensors of the R series.

For electro-magnetic fields
Electromagnetic field immuneand correction factor 1.
Electromagnetic interference pro-
duced during resistance welding
can easily throw inductive sen-
sors off balance.
The sensors of the W series, the
electromagnetic field immune
application sensors, are protected
by a special coil structure.
In AC/DC and medium-frequency
welding systems the electromag-
netic field immune application
sensors guarantee high operation-
al reliability and plant uptime.
Insensitive: The safecoating allows weld
spatter to roll off the sensor and enables
quick and easy cleaning. The sensing faces
of the sensors consist of resistant Duro-
plast. The metal sleeves are PTFE-coated
in addition.
Constant correction factor 1: The new
sensors with correction factor 1 (K = 1)
have the same sensing range on all metals.
Ingress-protected: The protection rating
IP 67 guarantees complete protection
against contact with dangerous parts,
ingress of dust and temporary immersion
in water.
Connection technology: Weld slag resis -tant ecolink EVW connectors and sen-
sors of the W series. The ideal combina-
tion for welding applications.

For hazardousareas
Safe in hazardous areas.
Hazardous areas mean highest
demands for an application.
Whether explosion risk by dust
or gas:
With the application sensors
from ifm electronic you are on
the safe side. This is ensured by
the EC type test certificate for
the equipment categories 1 and 2
to EC directive 94/9/EC (ATEX).
The choice is yours:
From threaded and rectangular
housings to dual sensors for posi-
tion feedback on quarter-turn
actuators. Here as well, sensors
with increased sensing range are
available.
Connection technology: the connectors of
the ecolink EVCxxA series have the
EC type test certificate by DEKRA EXAM.
In accordance with the strict standard
requirements, they can be used in ATEX
areas of the categories 2D, 3D and 3G.
The units were tested to EN61241-0 table
5 for a low mechanical risk at 4 joules.
No additional mechanical protection is
required if no greater forces are to be
expected in the application.

For industrialapplications
Linear and continuousin the tenth-of-a-millimetre range.
Inductive analogue sensors are
used wherever control up to the
tenth-of-a-millimetre range is
required. Even smallest distance
changes are reliably detected
with sensors from ifm electronic.
All intermediate positions
between the adjustable start and
end values can be detected. The
linear output signal simplifies
further processing in the control-
ler. Monitoring and control of the
process is carried out via the
standard signals 420 mA or
010 V.
Types: The different types M12, M18, M30
and rectangular enable the ideal inte-
gration into your plant.
Repeatability: Due to innovative technicalsolutions the analogue sensors attain high
repeatability. Moreover a very small
linearity error ensures excellent quality of
the measuring circuit.
Temperature range: The extraordinarily
wide temperature range of -2580 C
enables the sensors to withstand other-
wise critical applications.
Connection technology: From factory
automation to the machine tool industry:
ecolink EVC. Highest operational reliabil-
ity by vibration protection with end stop.

For industrialapplications
Versatile and flexible.
In all automated processes
sensors are absolutely necessary
to provide the PLC with informa-
tion. This applies to factory auto-
mation, assembly or robotics as
well as to conveying, handling
and packaging technology.
Properties: With almost forty years of
experience in development and produc-
tion, ifm electronic offers a wide product
range of inductive standard sensors.
Types: The standard types M8, M12, M18,
M30 and rectangular as well as many
more support the ideal integration into
your application.
Connection technology:A lasting connec-
tion. With ecolink M12, ifm electronic
offers highly innovative connection tech-
nology. Even in bright lighting conditions,
a black-transparent housing makes the
LEDs much better visible than clear-trans-
parent versions. This is an important pre-
requisite to keep an eye on the plant pro-
cess all the time and to be able to act
quickly in case of problems.
