  • 10–30 V DC supply fits standard control voltages

SICK IM08-04NPS-ZW1 M8 Inductive Sensor

The SICK IM08-04NPS-ZW1 is an M8 cylindrical inductive proximity sensor with a 4 mm non-flush sensing range. It operates on 10 V DC to 30 V DC supply voltage and provides a PNP normally open switching output. The sensor features a 3-wire DC electrical wiring configuration with a 2 m PVC cable connection. It is designed for industrial automation and position detection tasks.

Suited for Metal Detection in Tight Spaces

This sensor suits applications requiring non-flush mounting in M8 threaded holes where a short 4 mm sensing range is adequate. The 45 mm housing length and 36.2 mm thread length fit compact machine structures. Builders needing longer sensing distances, flush mounting, NPN output logic, or connector-based termination should look at alternative models.

Stable Output Under Continuous Operation

The sensor maintains a switching frequency of 1,800 Hz with reproducibility of 5 % and hysteresis between 2 % and 15 %. Temperature drift of the sensing range is limited to ± 10 % across the –25 °C to +70 °C ambient range. IP67 enclosure rating, 30 g shock resistance, and vibration resistance up to 55 Hz at 1 mm amplitude support reliable signalling during sustained industrial duty cycles.

Questions about this item

What voltage supply must I already have to run this SICK IM08-04NPS-ZW1 sensor?

The sensor requires a DC supply between 10 V and 30 V with no more than 10 % ripple, drawing a maximum of 20 mA.

Will the 2 m PVC cable and M8 thread fit the mounting brackets and cable glands I already use?

The housing is nickel-plated brass with an M8 × 1 thread 36.2 mm long, a 45 mm overall length, and a 2 m three-wire PVC cable of 0.14 mm² conductors.

How can I confirm the sensor is detecting correctly after wiring it?

With a target at the 4 mm sensing range the PNP normally-open output should switch at up to 1,800 Hz; the yellow LED on the housing lights when the output is active.
