This saves time, in particular when a product has to be quickly reordered. Navigation in the menu structure is no longer necessary. For all types of display Whether PC, laptop, tablet or smartphone – the design of the sales platform adapts to any screen size thus increasing...

Your start into the industrial revolution. IO-Link solutions from ifm. Simple: The sensor parameters can be set from the controller or the master. No crawling or climbing required to set the sensor. Transparent: Many sensors supply measured values to the switching signals via IO-Link. The goal is a constant product quality with less energy and raw material consumption. Reliable: Transmission that is prone to errors and conversion of analogue signals is replaced with digital measured value transmission. Low-cost: Process information, switching status, diagnostic functions are transmitted...

Head start with Use the advantages! Today IO-Link sen- sors from ifm give the user completely new options. Additional sensor data, for example, is generated to achieve maximum efficiency and cost saving. This allows process transparency from the machine to ERP to optimise your existing automation. Furthermore IO-Link has a lot more to offer: No external influence of the signal Tamper free Data transfer is based on a 24 V signal. Screened cables and associated grounding are no longer necessary. No wrong settings by operators. No measured value losses The entire measured value transmission is...

Industry standard Thermal shock test Shock test IP 69K high-pressure cleaning test In pressure cleaning environments, proximity sensors are exposed to extreme temperature conditions. This is why ifm performs thermal shock tests on the sensors by cycling the temperature between 0 and 100 ˚C in short time intervals. After the test, the sensors’ characteristics are tested to ensure high reliability. Sensors can be exposed to high levels of shock in industrial environments. This is why ifm sensors are tested at a shock level of 500 g. This test standard sets a new benchmark for inductive sensor...

Many ifm sensors are Ecolab certified Inductive proximity sensors Photoelectric sensors of the OG series for washdown Ecolab certified Ecolab® is a global leader in the development of premium cleaning, sanitizing and hygiene products for the food processing, beverage, dairy and pharmaceutical industries. The integrity and quality of ifm sensors, connectors and cables for use in washdown environments was tested in accordance with the demanding Ecolab standards. Independent tests were performed by Ecolab on the inductive sensors, photoelectric sensors of the OG series for washdown and AS-i...
