In a significant advancement for compact sensing technology, Baumer’s new IF200 dual channel inductive sensor delivers exceptional performance within a small footprint. Measuring just 20x42x15 mm (WxLxH), this miniature device can detect metallic objects and measure distances up to 10 millimeters—a remarkable capability for its size.

Robust Performance Under Harsh Conditions

The IF200 features an innovative design that not only enhances functionality but also improves durability. Constructed with a robust plastic housing, the sensor operates reliably in environments with ambient temperatures reaching up to 75 degrees Celsius. Additionally, it boasts an exceptionally low temperature drift of just 2% across its entire operating range—making it ideal for applications where precision is critical.

Ideal Applications

The extended measuring distance and compact design make the IF200 particularly suitable for a variety of factory automation tasks:

  • Controlling tether arm movements in labeling or packaging machines
  • Monitoring belt tension end positions
  • Ensuring roller concentricity
  • Performing precise micrometer-level distance measurements
