The Leuze IS 212MM/4N0-2E0-S12 is a high-performance inductive proximity sensor engineered for
reliable metal detection in industrial automation. With a standard sensing range of 2 mm (SN) and an adjustable operating range of 0–1.6 mm (SA), it accurately
identifies ferrous and non-ferrous targets, including steel,
aluminum, and copper alloys. Its 3,000 Hz switching frequency and 0.5 ms response time ensure rapid object detection in high-speed conveyor systems or
robotics. The sensor features short-circuit protection, reverse-polarity protection, and an IP67-rated nickel-plated brass housing, making it resistant to dust, water jets, and harsh chemicals.
Equipped with a PNP transistor output (NO) and an M12 4-pin connector, it integrates seamlessly with PLCs and
other control systems, while its -25°C to +70°C operating temperature range guarantees stability in extreme environments.
Designed for space-constrained installations, the IS 212MM/4N0-2E0-S12 boasts a cylindrical M12 x 60 mm housing with an embedded mounting option, ideal for flush or non-flush
applications. The sensor’s LED status indicator provides real-time feedback on switching states, enhancing
troubleshooting efficiency. It operates on a 10–30 V DC power supply and delivers a maximum output current of 200 mA, ensuring compatibility with industrial standards. Certified to c UL us and compliant with IEC 60947-5-2 safety regulations, it meets global requirements for machinery
safety. The Ecolab-compliant materials further make it suitable for food processing and pharmaceutical
industries, where hygiene is critical.
This inductive sensor excels in automotive assembly lines, packaging machinery, and intralogistics systems, detecting metal components, tools, or product carriers with
precision. Its background suppression technology eliminates false triggers from nearby metal surfaces, ensuring
reliable performance in crowded workspaces. The high repeatability (±5% of SN) and temperature stability make it suitable for applications requiring consistent accuracy,
such as quality control or robotics. Additionally, the M12 connector enables quick installation and replacement, reducing downtime.
Whether used in heavy machinery, warehouse automation, or semiconductor manufacturing, the IS 212MM/4N0-2E0-S12 optimizes productivity by combining durability, speed, and
precision.
