Product Description

The IFM Inductive Cylindrical Proximity Sensor (MPN IFS254) is a shielded, 3-wire NPN sensor with a non-terminated cable, operating on a 10-30V DC supply voltage. It is designed for cylindrical sensing applications and is not rated for AC supply.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the IFM IFS254 inductive proximity sensor used for?

The IFM IFS254 is used for non-contact detection of metal objects in industrial automation. Its shielded, cylindrical design allows flush mounting in machinery for position sensing, part counting, or end-stop detection. It operates on 10-30V DC and is suitable for factory-floor applications requiring reliable, maintenance-free sensing.

What are the specifications of the IFM IFS254 sensor?

The IFM IFS254 is a shielded, NPN inductive proximity sensor with 3 wires and a non-terminated cable. It requires a 10-30V DC supply and is not rated for AC. The cylindrical housing enables flush installation. IFM designs these sensors for robust industrial use, and 3G Electric supplies them globally.

Where to buy the IFM IFS254 sensor worldwide?

You can source the IFM IFS254 through 3G Electric, a global industrial equipment distributor. We handle full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to worldwide destinations. Contact us for availability and lead time; we provide genuine IFM components without requiring local distributor partnerships.

How to install the IFM IFS254 proximity sensor?

Install the IFM IFS254 by mounting it flush in a metal surface, as the shielded design prevents interference. Connect the 3 wires: brown to 10-30V DC positive, blue to negative, and black as the NPN output. Ensure the sensing face is clean and the cable is secured to avoid strain. Test with a metal target before finalizing.
