The IFM I22006 SIY-2120-ABOW/LS/A-PLATE is a long-range inductive sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of large metallic objects in industrial machinery, steel processing, metal handling and factory automation applications.
The sensor provides an adjustable sensing range of 30–120 mm, with a factory setting of 120 mm and a real sensing range of 120 ± 10% mm. The sensing range can be conveniently adjusted using the integrated potentiometer, providing flexibility when the sensor is installed at different distances from the target.
The I22006 uses a normally-open AC output and operates from a 90–250 V AC supply at 47–63 Hz. This makes it suitable for applications where an AC switching output is required for industrial equipment and automation systems.

The I22006 is designed for long-distance detection of metallic objects where conventional compact proximity sensors may not provide sufficient sensing distance. Its adjustable 30–120 mm range allows the sensor to detect large metal components, machine parts and other metallic targets from a greater distance.
The integrated potentiometer provides simple adjustment of the sensing range. The factory setting is 120 mm, allowing the sensor to be configured according to the requirements of the particular machine or detection application.
The sensor uses a normally-open AC switching output with a maximum permanent current rating of 250 mA at temperatures up to 50 °C and 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 I22006 features a large Ø164 mm cylindrical housing with a length of 68 mm and is supplied with a mounting plate. Its non-flush mounting configuration is intended for long-range sensing applications and provides a practical installation arrangement for large-area metallic detection.
The housing is manufactured from PBT, while the mounting plate is made from anodised aluminium. The sensor uses a 1 × 7/8" A-coded connector, providing a detachable electrical connection for industrial installation.
A yellow LED switching-status indicator provides visual feedback of the sensor's switching state, supporting installation, commissioning and maintenance activities.
The I22006 provides IP65 protection and operates over an ambient temperature range of -20 °C to +70 °C, supporting use in a variety of industrial environments.
The I22006 is suitable for Industrial Automation UAE applications requiring long-range detection of metallic objects.
