The IFM I22003 SIY-2120-ABOW/A-PLATE is a long-range inductive area sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of large metallic objects in industrial machinery, metal processing, material handling and factory automation applications.
Unlike compact proximity sensors designed for short detection distances, the I22003 provides a long adjustable sensing range of 30–120 mm. The factory setting is 120 mm, while the sensing range can be adjusted using the integrated potentiometer. This makes the sensor suitable for applications where metallic objects need to be detected from a greater distance.
The sensor uses a normally-open AC output and operates from a 90–250 V AC supply at 47–63 Hz. Its AC switching output is designed for applications requiring direct switching of suitable loads within the specified electrical ratings.

The I22003 is designed for long-distance detection of metallic objects where conventional short-range proximity sensors may not provide sufficient sensing distance. Its adjustable 30–120 mm detection zone provides flexibility when positioning the sensor around large machinery, metal components and material-handling equipment.
The integrated potentiometer allows the sensing range to be adjusted according to the application. The factory setting is 120 mm, while the real sensing range at the factory setting is specified as 120 ± 10% mm.
The sensor operates with a normally-open AC switching output. It supports a continuous switching current of up to 250 mA at temperatures up to 50 °C, reducing to 200 mA at temperatures up to 70 °C. A peak current of 1.5 A for 10 ms at 0.5 Hz is also specified.
The I22003 has a Ø164 mm cylindrical housing and is supplied with a mounting plate. Its non-flush installation arrangement is designed for long-range sensing and provides a practical mounting solution for large-area detection applications.
The housing is manufactured from PBT, while the mounting plate is made from anodised aluminium. The sensor is supplied with a 2 m PVC cable with 2 × 0.5 mm² conductors.
A yellow LED provides switching-status indication, helping operators and maintenance personnel identify the sensor output state during installation, commissioning and operation.
The I22003 provides IP65 protection and operates within an ambient temperature range of -20 °C to +70 °C, making it suitable for a range of industrial environments.
