Cylindrical M8 Inductive Sensor
The SICK IME08-2N5NOZW2S is an inductive proximity sensor built for industrial automation and machine-monitoring tasks. Its cylindrical M8 x 1 metal housing fits tight mounting points where a compact threaded body is required. The device detects metal targets at a 2.5 mm sensing range with a safe operating distance of 2.025 mm. It suits engineers and maintenance teams needing reliable presence detection in harsh environments.
IP67 Cable Connection Benefits
A 2 m PVC cable with three 0.25 mm² conductors provides a direct wired link without separate connectors. The IP67-rated enclosure resists dust ingress and temporary immersion, while the nickel-plated brass housing withstands shock at 30 g and vibration up to 55 Hz. An operating window from –25 °C to +75 °C allows use in unheated or outdoor installations. Short-circuit, reverse-polarity and power-up pulse protection guard the output stage.
NPN Normally-Closed Output Decides Fit
The sensor switches a 10–30 V DC load through an NPN transistor configured as normally closed, delivering up to 200 mA continuous current. A 4,000 Hz switching frequency supports fast cyclic operations, and reproducibility stays within 2 %. Buyers who need a normally open contact or a PNP output must select a different variant. The 52 mm housing length and 30 mm thread depth define the mechanical envelope for bracket design.

Questions about this item
What maintenance or replacement will the M8 x 1 threaded housing and 2 m PVC cable need in a machine environment?
The nickel-plated brass housing and PA 66 sensing face resist wear; inspect the PVC cable for abrasion or oil damage periodically and re-torque the M8 thread to 5 Nm if vibration loosens it.
Which limit appears first during continuous operation — the 4 000 Hz switching frequency or the 200 mA continuous current rating?
The 200 mA continuous current limit is reached before the 4 000 Hz switching frequency becomes a constraint under sustained load.
How much heat and noise does the sensor produce when powered at 30 V DC all day?
Solid-state switching generates no audible noise; self-heating is minimal with 10 mA quiescent draw and a 2 V drop at full 200 mA load, staying well within the –25 °C to +75 °C operating range.
