The SICK IME08-1B5POZT0K is an 8 mm threaded-body inductive proximity sensor with a 1.5 mm flush sensing range. It switches PNP normally closed at up to 4000 Hz, making it a fast pick for tight metal-detection spots on a conveyor or gripper jaw — the 1.5 mm gap means it catches small features or thin targets without needing standoff room. The M8 3-pin connector keeps the wiring clean on a panel gland plate; no pigtail to manage.
Runs on 10-30 V DC, draws 10 mA quiescent, and sinks up to 200 mA continuous on the PNP output. The nickel-plated brass housing and plastic sensing face hold up to washdown at IP67.
