Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The IFM I7R214 I7R3025-FNKG/US-100-INF is a high-resolution inductive ring sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic components passing through a defined sensing opening.
The sensor uses a static operating principle and is designed for applications where metallic parts need to be detected as they pass through a controlled path. Its ring-shaped construction creates a defined sensing zone, making it suitable for automated part detection, feeding systems, material-flow monitoring and congestion detection.
The I7R214 features a compact 60 × 35 × 20 mm circular housing with an internal sensing diameter of 25.1 mm. This provides a practical passage for compatible metallic components while maintaining a defined detection area.
The sensor uses an NPN electrical design with a selectable normally-open or normally-closed output. It operates from a 10–35 V DC supply and supports a permanent switching current of 200 mA.

The I7R214 is designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic components passing through the ring opening. Its static operating principle makes it suitable for monitoring parts travelling through feed tubes, feeders and other controlled material paths.
The 25.1 mm internal sensing diameter provides a relatively large passage for compatible metallic components. This makes the sensor suitable for automated feeders, production machinery, material-handling equipment and guided part-transfer systems.
The sensor provides a 3 mm steel-ball resolution, allowing detection of suitable metallic targets when application conditions meet the specified requirements. The maximum specified part speed is 35 m/s, supporting fast-moving components in automated processes.
The NPN output can be selected between normally open and normally closed, providing flexibility when connecting the sensor to compatible PLC inputs, controllers and automation circuits. The permanent switching current is rated at 200 mA.
The adjustable 10–150 ms pulse-stretching function can extend short detection signals, helping connected control systems reliably register brief detection events when metallic components pass through the sensing opening. The response time is specified at less than 0.5 ms, with a maximum fall time of 10 ms.
The I7R214 uses a compact ring-style construction measuring 60 × 35 × 20 mm with a 25.1 mm internal sensing diameter.
Metallic components pass through the central sensing opening while the sensor monitors their presence. This creates a repeatable detection point for automated feeding, counting, material-flow monitoring and congestion-control applications.
The housing is manufactured from polyamide (PA) and the sensing ring from POM. Electrical connection is provided through an M12 A-coded connector, allowing integration with compatible industrial sensor cabling.
The I7R214 is particularly suitable for applications where metallic parts travel through feed tubes or guided material-handling paths.
