The Original New IFM IFT200 is a high-performance inductive proximity sensor engineered for reliable metal object detection in the food and beverage industry and other demanding hygiene-critical environments. Housed in a robust stainless steel (1.4404 / 316L) body with a PEEK sensing face, it is resistant to high-pressure cleaning with aggressive cleaning agents and withstands frequent temperature fluctuations. Featuring a 7 mm non-flush mounting sensing range, gold-plated M12 connector contacts, and IP68 / IP69K protection, the IFT200 ensures reliable, long-term operation where standard sensors fail. Core Engineering Highlights:7 mm non-flush mountable sensing range | PNP normally open output | 10‑30 V DC operating voltage | 800 Hz switching frequency | 0°C to +100°C ambient temperature range | IP68 / IP69K protection rating | Stainless steel (316L) housing | PEEK sensing face | Gold‑plated M12 connector contacts | 1134 years MTTF Key Features: Original New IFM IFT200 sensor Inductive proximity sensor for non‑contact detection of metal objects Non-flush (unshielded) mounting for extended sensing range 7 mm nominal sensing range with 0‑5.67 mm operating distance PNP normally open (NO) output with 100 mA continuous current rating 800 Hz switching frequency for high‑speed applications Stainless steel (1.4404 / 316L) housing and lock nuts for corrosion resistance PEEK sensing face for enhanced chemical and thermal resistance Gold‑plated M12 connector contacts for reliable signal transmission 4 yellow LEDs at 90° for clear switching status indication Reverse polarity, short‑circuit, and overload protection 10‑30 V DC wide operating voltage range Protection rating IP68 and IP69K for high‑pressure washdown and immersion Wide ambient temperature range: 0°C to 100°C Increased sensing range capability Correction factors: steel 1.0, stainless steel 0.7, brass 0.5, aluminium 0.4, copper 0.3 Applications: Metal object detection in food and beverage processing equipment Hygienic areas requiring regular cleaning processes High‑pressure washdown environments with aggressive cleaning agents Applications with frequent temperature fluctuations Position monitoring on stainless steel machinery and conveyors Packaging and bottling lines in the food industry Automated assembly and material handling systems Technical Specifications: Attribute Specification Catalog Number IFT200 Order No. IFB3007-BPKG/V4A/US-104 Product Type Inductive proximity sensor Housing Threaded type, M12 x 1 Housing Length 50 mm Housing Material Stainless steel (1.4404 / 316L) Sensing Face Material PEEK natural Lock Nuts Material Stainless steel (1.4404 / 316L) Mounting Non-flush mountable Sensing Range 7 mm Real Sensing Range Sr 7 mm ± 10 % Operating Distance 0‑5.67 mm Increased Sensing Range Yes Electrical Design PNP Output Function Normally open (NO) Operating Voltage 10‑30 V DC Current Consumption < 10 mA Max.
