Nickel-plated brass M8 inductive sensor, 41 mm long, 8 mm diameter, IP67 rated

Sick

Sick IME08-04NNSZTOK Inductive Proximity Sensor NPN 4 mm M8

SKU CH-KT4D-4XN2W

M8 inductive proximity sensor detects metal at 4 mm with NPN normally-open output, 4 kHz switching, IP67 rating and 10–30 V DC supply

  • 4 mm sensing range with 4,000 Hz switching frequency
  • NPN normally-open output handles 200 mA continuous current
  • IP67-rated nickel-plated brass housing withstands –25 °C to +75 °C
  • M8 3-pin connector on 10–30 V DC supply
  • Short 41 mm body with 21 mm thread fits tight spaces

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.
