Entries

  • in Airflow Sensors

    IFM offers flow sensors, flow transmitters, airflow sensors, and flow rate meters. Their airflow sensors feature a cylindrical type Ø 23 mm process connection with an analog output of 0 - 10V.

  • in Capacitive Proximity Sensors

    IFM Efector Inc. develops capacitive sensors used in general industrial environments and environments with hazardous locations. Available with M12, M18, M30, or large rectangular housings, the sensors are used for conveying, material handling, assembly, packaging and plastics, bulk powder conveying, chemical processing, and oil refining applications.

  • in Inductive Proximity Sensors

    IFM Efector, Inc. offers inductive proximity sensors in the following configurations: small rectangular, ring & tube, miniature housings, large rectangular, and industry standard housings. Ring & tube inductive sensors have operating voltages ranging from 10 to 300 VDC, housing materials constructed from PA/POM, IP 67/68/69K protection, and operating temperatures ranging from -25 to 90C. These sensors have packaging, assembly, robotics, material handling, and conveying applications.

  • in Magnetic Proximity Sensors

    IFM Efector manufactures inductive magnetic proximity sensors used in the industrial automation and food and beverage industries. The sensors used in food and beverage applications feature housing diameter of M12x1MM threaded or M18x1 threaded, with maximum sensing range of 60 mm or 70 mm. The industrial automation sensors are rectangular type and feature diameters of M8, M12 or M18.

  • in Photoelectric Sensors

    IFM Efector Inc. manufactures photoelectric sensors including infrared sensors for position sensing, laser sensors for long-range object detection, and fiber optics for limited space applications. The company also produces photoelectric sensors for clear glass, contrast and color.

  • in Position Sensors

    IFM features a wide variety of sensors. Proximity sensors, which are offered in both inductive and magnetic models, can be used for position feedback on automated machinery, while cylinder sensors determine the end-of-stroke position in cylinders. The company's photoelectric and laser sensors detect positions from long-range, while its fiber optics sensors do so in limited space. Finally, capacitative proximity sensors detect the position of non-metallic targets, such as glass, plastic, paper, or wood.

  • in Pressure Sensors

    IFM offers their PI Series pressure sensors made with a 316 stainless steel housing and designed for sanitary applications. For application versatility, multiple process fittings can be used.

  • in Proximity Sensors

    IFM Efector Inc. develops and manufactures analog inductive proximity sensors that provide linear output signals. Proximity sensors are used for part positioning, distance, size and thickness measurement, identification of different metals, and general inspection and error-proofing.

  • in Safety Sensors

    ifm’s safety switch technology enables an inductive proximity sensor to be applied in safety applications. The sensor’s continual self-check operation enables it to achieve many safety certifications, including IEC 61408 and ISO 13489-1 Pl d. and EIC 62061 SICcl2.

  • in Tilt Sensors

    IFM offers tilt sensors that feature an angular range/switching hysteresis of 2.5 to 5 degrees, operating voltage ranges of 10 to 30 VDC, repeatability of 0.2 degrees, digital interface, single axis, and cable connection.
