SICK IQ06-03BPSKU2S Rectangular Inductive Proximity Sensor PNP IQM 30V 3 mm 30 V dc 100mA

SICK IQM Series Proximity Sensor, 3mm Maximum Detection, IP67 - IQ06-03BPSKU2S

This proximity sensor detects metallic targets in industrial environments and is designed for flush mounting within machinery and control panels. Encased in a plastic rectangular body, it operates across a wide temperature span and connects via an attached cable, making it suitable for continuous sensing tasks on automated lines and equipment where Compact detection is required.

Features and Benefits:

• Detects metal at up to 3mm providing close-range target sensing
  Operates from 0V to 30V enabling common DC control integration
  Switches up to 100 mA supporting direct drive of small loads
  Responds at up to 1 kHz for high-frequency detection tasks
  Withstands -25 to 70 °C for varied factory and plant conditions
  Offers IP67 protection for reliable performance in wet environments

Applications

• Suitable for position sensing on assembly conveyors
  Ideal for proximity detection on pick-and-place actuators
  Used for metal part presence checks in inspection stations
  Can be used for end-of-travel sensing in electric actuators
  Suitable for integration into Compact machine housings

What mounting style does it require for correct operation?

It is designed for flush installation so the sensor face sits level with surrounding mounting surfaces to maintain accurate sensing of nearby metallic targets.

How is the sensor connected into existing control circuits?

It provides a PNP switching output delivered through a fixed cable termination, enabling straightforward wiring to positive-sensing DC inputs.

What construction and protection ensure suitability for industrial use?

The rectangular housing is plastic and rated to IP67, providing sealed operation against dust and temporary immersion in liquid.

Which standards relate to its enclosure and switching performance?

It conforms to EN 60529 for ingress protection and EN 60947-5-2 for electromechanical switching characteristics.
