The Sick IM08-1B5PS-ZWK is a high-performance inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable detection and positioning tasks in a variety of industrial applications. This compact sensor, with its robust construction and an M8 threaded barrel, is engineered to fit into tight spaces while offering precise sensing capabilities. The sensor operates with a nominal sensing range of 1.5 mm, ensuring accurate detection of metallic objects.
Constructed with a durable brass housing that's nickel-plated, the IM08-1B5PS-ZWK is built to withstand harsh industrial environments. It features a short body design, making it an ideal choice for applications where space is at a premium. The sensor is equipped with a 3-wire DC electrical configuration and a PNP normally open output, which allows for straightforward integration into existing control systems.
With an IP67 rating, the sensor promises protection against dust and water ingress, making it suitable for use in challenging conditions. The operating temperature range of –25 °C to +70 °C ensures reliable performance across a wide range of environmental temperatures.
The IM08-1B5PS-ZWK also includes an LED indicator for easy status monitoring and comes with a 2-meter cable for flexible installation options. Its electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) conforms to EN 60947-5-2 standards, ensuring minimal electrical interference with other devices.
This sensor is a dependable solution for automation tasks that require non-contact metal detection, such as machine tool positioning, assembly line control, and end-of-line packaging processes. Its combination of compact size, environmental resilience, and precise sensing makes it a valuable component for enhancing efficiency and reliability in industrial operations.

Thumbs up to Rob for helping out with an urgent requirement we had on a Friday afternoon. The part we wanted was over in Europe and Rob went out of his way to get it ordered and on site here for the following Tuesday.City Bearings
Absolutely fantastic service. Rob was very helpful. Great communication. Requested part was shipped in no time.Konrad Eliaszuk
Found the component i was looking for ad a great price. Great support from the staff as I was paying using a wire transfer. - Quick delivery and very good packaging.Adriano Tiberi
Extremely Helpful. Shipped me a replacement unit next day and i was up and running within 24 hours. Replacement new from machinery manufacturers was on a 7 day lead time.Sean Conlin
Found the part we needed at the best price. Spoke to Rob to make sure the part was actually in stock, as many companies don't actually have the part available to ship. It was in stock ready and the part was checked and shipped and received within a couple of days from their German stock. Would definitely use again and recommend.Chris Sentance
