FAQ

What is the nominal sensing distance (Sn) and is it adjustable?

The nominal sensing distance for the IKQR 100T.38 MG is 100 mm. This is a fixed distance and is not adjustable on the sensor itself. Ensure the target object comes within this range for reliable detection.

Is this sensor suitable for detecting non-ferrous metals like aluminum or copper?

Yes, as an inductive sensor, it can detect all types of metals. However, the sensing distance is reduced for non-ferrous metals. The 100mm rating applies to a standard mild steel target. For aluminum, the sensing range might be reduced by 40-60 percent.

What is the recommended wiring for the PNP output on this sensor?

The label indicates the standard wiring: Pin 1 (BN - Brown) for +VDC, Pin 3 (BU - Blue) for 0V (GND), and Pin 4 (BK - Black) for the PNP signal output. Pin 2 (WH - White) is typically for a complementary output, but should be connected according to the specific application diagram.
