IFM Electronic GmbH IN2004-FRKG Inductive Proximity Sensor

The IFM Electronic GmbH IN2004-FRKG is an industrial-grade Inductive Proximity Sensor engineered to detect metallic components using electromagnetic fields, providing a maintenance-free method to monitor the existence of objects on high-speed conveyor paths or robotic workcells. A key specification of this hardware is the factory-fitted 12" cabling, which allows for flexible routing between the sensing face and the control cabinet to reduce stress on the connection point during continuous machinery cycles. Technicians and purchasing agents must verify the full alphanumeric code containing IN2004 combined with the IN8514 suffix and US100 label to ensure compatibility with existing electrical infrastructure and mounting brackets. Relying on the manufacturer's official nomenclature for the sensing component ensures accurate ordering and prevents the logistical delays associated with sourcing visually similar but electrically incompatible switches used in different automation categories.
