ID5005 Proximity sensor

Key Technical Specifications

• Sensing Range: Highly adjustable from 20 mm to 60 mm via an integrated potentiometer.
• Electrical Design: PNP with a programmable output function (Normally Open / Normally Closed selectable).
• Operating Voltage: 10...36 V DC with a permanent current rating of 250 mA.
• Housing & Build: Robust rectangular housing measuring 105 x 80 x 40 mm made from resilient Polyphenylene Ether (PPE).
• Environmental Protection: Rated at IP65 for dust and water resistance, operating efficiently across a temperature range of -25°C to 80°C.
• Mounting: Non-flush mountable (unshielded), requiring a clear zone around the large active sensor face to prevent false triggering.
• Connection Type: Secure screw terminals supporting up to 2.5 mm² wires, accessible via an M20 x 1.5 cable gland.
• Status Indicator: Features a prominent yellow LED for instant visual feedback on the switching status. 

Target Material Correction FactorsBecause inductive sensors operate via electromagnetic fields, the actual sensing distance varies based on the type of metal being detected. The ID5005 targets scale as follows: 

• Steel: 1.0 (Full 60 mm range)
• Stainless Steel: 0.7
• Brass: 0.4
• Aluminum: 0.3
• Copper: 0.2
