IQ Flat-pack Inductive Sensors

12-Jan-2011

 

Rectangular inductive sensors are now available in a flat-pack housing that fits into tight spaces! 

 

Solve your applications with SICK’s new IQ flat-pack rectangular inductive sensors. This complete family of inductive sensors is designed to fit into tight spaces. IQ flat-pack sensors are easily installed using one or two screws, depending on the model, which saves installation time and costs. In addition, the IQ20 and IQ25 have a tough, metal housing, which reduces maintenance costs and increases sensor life.

 

Features:

Flat housing style

  • Small and compact
  • Extended sensing range
  • One screw installation
          - IQ04 and IQ06 - one screw installation 
          - IQ20 and IQ25 - two screw installation
  • Tough metal housing
          - IQ04 and IQ06 - plastic housing
          - IQ20 and IQ25  - zinc die-cast housing

 

Benefits:

  • Flat housing- fits into tight spaces and sensing head does not protrude from the sensor
  • Easy installation- One screw (IQ04 and IQ06) or two screw (IQ20 and IQ25) installation saves time
  • Tough, metal housing - The IQ20 and IQ25 offer die-cast zinc housings that reduce the possibility of damage to sensors and reduce maintenance costs

 

Applications:

Tool position detection on tray transfer – semiconductor

  • Mechanical limit switch replacement – general manufacturing
  • Actuator/ tool overtravel detection – general manufacturing
  • Die protection – metal forming
  • Tool position – packaging machines
  • Coin detection – vending machines, slot machines
  • Cam position detection –  packaging machines
