Inductive sensor IFM IE5339 with M8 thread

The IFM IE5339 IEB30,2-BPKG/AS inductive sensor is designed for non-contact sensing of metal objects in industrial applications. Thanks to the M8 threaded cylindrical design and M8 connector, it is suitable for installations with limited space, where accurate short-range detection and visual signaling of the switching state are required.
