The DI5023 from ifm electronic is a compact speed monitor for precise monitoring of rotational and linear movements, especially in cases of under-speed or blockage. It is ideally suited for industrial applications where reliable and fast response to speed changes is required. The device features a robust M30 enclosure with a total length of 92.3 mm and is designed for flush mounting, making it particularly suitable for limited installation conditions. The inductive evaluation unit detects movements within a sensing range of 10 mm and enables easy integration into existing control systems. As a PNP switch with a 3-pole M12 connector, the speed monitor provides secure and reliable signal transmission. The protection rating IP65/IP67 ensures high resistance against dust and water, allowing the device to be used outdoors or in humid environments. The operating voltage ranges from 10 to 36 V DC, and the sensor includes reverse polarity protection, overvoltage protection, and short-circuit resistance to ensure safe and long-lasting operation.
