Sick IM04-0B6PS-ZU1 Inductive Proximity Sensor PNP M4 0.6mm 2m Cable IP67

SKU CH-HSQ3-XH8KS

M4 inductive sensor detects metal at 0.6 mm with PNP output, 5,000 Hz switching and IP67-rated stainless housing

  • M4 thread fits tight machine spaces
  • 6 mm sensing range detects small metal targets
  • 5000 Hz switching frequency suits high-speed automation
  • IP67 rating resists water and dust ingress
  • Stainless steel housing withstands shock and vibration

Compact M4 inductive sensor for tight machine spaces

The Sick IM04-0B6PS-ZU1 is a cylindrical M4 × 0.5 proximity switch with a four-millimetre body diameter. It detects metal targets at a nominal range of 0.6 millimetres and provides a PNP normally-open output on a three-wire DC circuit. The two-metre PUR cable and IP67 enclosure suit installation in compact automation equipment where mounting room is limited.

Stable switching up to 5 kHz with minimal drift

A switching frequency of 5,000 hertz supports high-speed counting or position tasks without missing pulses. Hysteresis stays within one to ten percent and reproducibility is held to two percent, while temperature drift of the sensing distance is limited to ten percent across the minus twenty-five to plus seventy degrees Celsius operating range. The ten-millisecond power-up delay and built-in short-circuit plus reverse-polarity protection keep the output reliable during continuous cycling.

Stainless-steel housing

The barrel and threaded section are made from V2A 304 stainless steel, resisting coolant, oils and mechanical knocks rated at thirty grams for eleven milliseconds. A maximum tightening torque of 0.8 newton-metres prevents thread damage during installation. The 2.6-millimetre PUR jacket resists abrasion and chemical splash, and the sensor meets EN 60947-5-2 plus IEC 61000-4-2 and IEC 61000-4-4 level two for electromagnetic compatibility in industrial panels.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the IM04-0B6PS-ZU1 generate when running all day on a 30 V DC supply?

At 30 V DC the sensor draws a maximum of 10 mA, giving roughly 0.3 W dissipation; the stainless-steel housing and IP67 rating allow it to operate continuously from –25 °C to +70 °C without additional cooling.

What power supply must I already have to run the IM04-0B6PS-ZU1?

You need a 10 V DC to 30 V DC source capable of at least 10 mA with ripple below 20 %; the sensor connects via a 2 m, 3-wire PUR cable (0.06 mm² conductors) and includes reverse-polarity protection.

Will the IM04-0B6PS-ZU1 fit alongside my existing M4-threaded brackets?

Yes — it uses an M4 × 0.5 thread, 19 mm thread length and 22 mm overall housing length, with a maximum tightening torque of 0.8 Nm, matching standard M4 mounting hardware.
