Sick IME18-08NPOZW2S inductive proximity sensor PNP NC M18 8 mm 2 m cable
M18 inductive proximity sensor detects metal at 8 mm with PNP NC output on a 2 m cable
- PNP output simplifies wiring with DC 3-wire connection
- 8 mm sensing range detects metal targets reliably
- IP67 enclosure rating resists dust and water ingress
- Nickel-plated brass housing withstands 30 g shock and vibration
- 2 m PVC cable allows flexible mounting without extra connectors
Inductive sensor M18 8 mm range
The Sick IME18-08NPOZW2S is a cylindrical inductive proximity sensor built for industrial detection tasks. Its nickel-plated brass housing and IP67 rating suit harsh environments where reliable metal sensing is required. The 2 m PVC cable provides a fixed wiring solution for permanent installations.
PNP normally closed output
The sensor delivers a PNP switching output with normally closed logic, meaning the signal opens when a target enters the 8 mm sensing range. It operates on 10 V DC to 30 V DC supply voltage with a 1000 Hz switching frequency and 200 mA continuous current capacity. Short-circuit, reverse polarity and power-up pulse protection are integrated.
For fixed metal detection in tight threads
This unit suits automation engineers needing a non-flush M18 sensor with a short 67 mm body and 42 mm thread length. Buyers requiring flush mounting, longer cable runs or a normally open output function should look at other models.

Questions about this item
How does the 8 mm sensing range behave once the sensor is installed in a machine?
The rated sensing distance is 8 mm, but the safe operating distance is 6.48 mm; hysteresis of 5–15 % and a reproducibility of 2 % mean the switching point stays consistent in normal use.
What does the PNP output with NC function and 10–30 V DC supply actually limit in practice?
The output can continuously sink 200 mA with a 2 V drop; short-circuit, reverse-polarity and power-up pulse protection are built in, and the switching frequency caps at 1,000 Hz.
What clearance and mounting hardware does the M18 × 1 threaded barrel need?
The barrel is 67 mm long with a 42 mm thread length; it requires an M18 clearance hole and the maximum tightening torque is 40 Nm.
