SICK IQ04-1B5PSKW2S Rectangular Inductive Proximity Sensor, 5.7 mm PNP IQ04 30V 1.5 mm 30 V dc 100mA

SICK IQM Series Proximity Sensor, 1.5mm Maximum Detection, IP67 - IQ04-1B5PSKW2S

This proximity sensor is a compact, short-range detection device designed for industrial automation and electrical control environments. It provides non-contact object sensing with a plastic enclosure and is intended for flush installation where a narrow sensing range and reliable switching behaviour are required.

Features and Benefits:

• Maximum detection distance 1.5mm provides accurate short-range sensing
  PNP output enables simple sourcing logic integration
  Maximum switching frequency 600Hz supports high-speed detection
  IP67 ingress protection permits operation in wet or dusty conditions
  Operating range -25 to 70°C allows wide temperature deployment
  Cable Terminal and 5.7mm thread simplify secure panel mounting

Applications

• Suitable for presence detection on Compact conveyor systems
  Ideal for parts counting in small automated feeders
  Used with control panels requiring flush-mounted sensors
  Can be used for proximity detection on pick-and-place machines
  Suitable for end-of-travel sensing in tight mechanical assemblies

What electrical supply limits should be observed during installation?

Operate the device with a supply voltage not exceeding 30V and ensure switching load currents remain within 100 mA to avoid overloading.

How should I plan for environmental sealing when mounting?

The unit meets IP67 standards for temporary submersion and dust-tightness, so install with compatible sealing and cable routing to maintain ingress protection.

What mounting considerations apply for flush fitting?

Fit the sensor so the sensing face is level with surrounding material
the unshielded design requires correct positioning to avoid metal interference affecting detection.

How does the housing and form factor affect integration in tight spaces?

The rectangular plastic body with a depth of 4mm and a width of 8mm allows installation in constrained footprints while maintaining electrical isolation.
