Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The IIR212 is a robust full-metal inductive sensor designed for applications where reliable metallic target detection is required in demanding environments. According to IFM documentation, it features PNP normally-open output, a 15 mm sensing range, and a threaded M30 x 1.5 housing. Its full-metal construction and magnetic-field immunity make it particularly suitable for welding applications and industrial machinery.
The IIR212 is designed for demanding welding and automation environments where conventional sensors may be exposed to magnetic fields and mechanical stress. Its full-metal housing and magnetic-field immunity support reliable operation, while the 15 mm sensing range allows metallic targets to be detected without physical contact. The sensor is also specified for pressure applications at the sensing face up to 10 bar / 1 MPa.
The IIR212 is a strong choice for industrial applications requiring a rugged full-metal sensor with dependable inductive detection. IFM specifies 10–30 V DC operation, PNP normally-open output, reverse-polarity protection, short-circuit protection, and a 100 mA permanent current rating. Its suitability for welding applications makes it particularly useful in demanding machine environments.
