Sick IME08-04NNSZTOK Inductive Sensor
The Sick IME08-04NNSZTOK is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor with an M8 x 1 thread and a 4 mm sensing range. It operates on 10 to 30 V DC with an NPN normally-open output and a 4,000 Hz switching frequency. The nickel-plated brass housing measures 41 mm in total length with a 21 mm thread length and carries an IP67 enclosure rating.
Suited For And Not Suited For
This sensor suits automation tasks that require non-flush mounting in an M8 thread and a 3-pin M8 connector. It is not for applications needing a flush-mount design, a PNP output type, or a longer sensing distance than 4 mm. Buyers who require a different thread size or a cable connection instead of a connector should look at other models.
Deciding Specification 4 mm Sensing Range
The 4 mm sensing range with a 3.24 mm safe sensing range is the single figure that determines fit. The 10 to 30 V DC supply voltage and NPN output function are fixed electrical characteristics. Verify that the target material and mounting geometry match the non-flush installation type before purchasing.

Questions about this item
How do I install the M8×1 threaded sensor and what tightening torque should I avoid exceeding?
Screw the nickel-plated brass housing into an M8×1 thread until the 21 mm thread length seats, then tighten to a maximum of 5 Nm; exceeding this torque can damage the housing or sensing face.
What maintenance or replacement will the sensor need during its service life?
The sensor has no user-serviceable parts; if the PA 66 sensing face becomes scratched or the IP67 seal is compromised, the entire unit must be replaced.
At what continuous current does the short-circuit protection activate on the NPN output?
The output is rated for 200 mA continuous current; the built-in short-circuit protection trips when this limit is exceeded, shutting down the output until the fault is cleared.
