The SICK IME30-15BPSZC0K inductive proximity sensor is built to deliver stable metal detection with a generous 15 mm sensing distance, making it a dependable choice for automation equipment that requires consistent triggering. Its compact M30 short-body design allows it to fit into tight mechanical layouts without sacrificing strength or performance. The sensor operates using a PNP normally-open output and connects through a 4-pin M12 plug, ensuring quick installation and straightforward replacement during maintenance. With resistance to dust, moisture, vibration, and temperature changes, it maintains reliable operation even in demanding industrial environments.
The IME30-15BPSZC0K is engineered to remain accurate even when exposed to electrical noise, vibration, or shifting ambient temperatures. Its fast switching capability supports high-throughput production lines, allowing it to detect passing metal parts with minimal delay. The rugged brass housing and reinforced sensing face offer mechanical strength for long-term use, while built-in electronic protection helps prevent damage from short circuits or power surges. Its flush-mount configuration simplifies system design, as the sensor sits neatly within the mounting surface while still achieving full sensing range. This makes it a strong choice for tasks such as part positioning, conveyor presence detection, and metal object monitoring across many industrial applications.
The IME30-15BPSZC0K stands out because it offers long-range metal detection in a compact M30 body, blending strength with space-saving design. It delivers fast, repeatable switching even in noisy or high-vibration environments, giving machine builders a sensor they can rely on day after day. Its simplicity, durability, and stable performance make it a favorite for demanding automation lines.
This model eliminates unreliable metal detection caused by vibration, temperature drift, or tight installation spaces. It provides a strong 15 mm sensing range without requiring bulky housings, making it ideal for equipment where precision and speed are essential. The sensor ensures consistent triggering, reducing downtime, misalignment issues, and false readings in fast-moving industrial processes.

Fast-moving packaging systems rely on accurate detection to ensure metal parts or carriers are correctly positioned as products move through each stage. An inductive sensor with a 15 mm range provides a clear, repeatable response even when items vary slightly in approach distance. Its flush-mounted body allows it to sit protected inside guard rails, reducing accidental contact. The quick switching response supports continuous conveyor motion without causing slowdowns. When installed near diverters or feeders, the sensor helps prevent incorrect routing, product jams, and wasted cycle time. This improves the overall consistency of packaging operations and keeps automated equipment running smoothly.
Metalworking machines often operate in environments filled with vibration, chips, and coolant spray, making non-contact detection critical. A durable inductive sensor is well suited for monitoring the movement of tool carriers, metal slides, or fixture plates. Its stable sensing distance ensures that position checks remain consistent even as temperatures shift during long machining cycles. Unlike mechanical switches, it does not suffer from wear, allowing reliable feedback without frequent replacement. The sturdy M30 housing tolerates the machine’s internal stresses, helping avoid collisions or incorrect tool starts. This enhances process safety, reduces scrap, and supports steady machining throughput.
Assembly equipment often requires confirmation that specific metal parts are present before pressing, fastening, or welding occurs. A 15 mm inductive sensor provides dependable detection without contacting or damaging coated or finished metal pieces. Its short-body structure fits easily into tight assembly stations, making it useful in machines with compact tooling. By confirming each part is properly placed before the next action, the system avoids incomplete assemblies, misfeeds, or tooling strikes. The sensor’s resistance to electrical noise allows it to function reliably near motors and actuators. This keeps assembly lines consistent and reduces downtime caused by misaligned or missing components.
Industrial gates, safety barriers, and lifting mechanisms often use non-contact sensing to determine when a moving metal section has reached its end position. A rugged inductive sensor with a 15 mm detection zone works well in these systems because it does not require strict alignment or physical contact. Its sealed housing protects it from dust, moisture, and the general wear associated with repeated motion. By providing clear feedback to the control system, it ensures that platforms or gates only operate when components are fully in place. This minimizes accidental impacts, improves equipment reliability, and enhances operational safety across handling and access systems.
