IMB is a standard line and therefore only comparable with other standard sensor lines.

High temperature sensors (+120, +180°C or 230°C) are considered of a different specialty sensor class.

PERFORMANCE WEB OVERVIEWCOMPETITIVE SITUATION

TURCK Washdown & BALLUFF Proxinox

(F&B sensors) better than IMB due to AISI316 steel.

However, look at the price…

IMB best-in-class due to highest shock

rating and self locking nuts to protect

against shock and vibration

IMB best-in-class due to widest temperature range (within

10% drift)

SICK IMB, Omron E2E, and Balluff

Proxinox tie for 1st place. Better IMB performance not

proven yet

IMB is the only sensor with intelligent

functions.

Omron offers a diagnostic output on

select models.

IMB best-in-class due to highest tightning

torque values & stainless steel

housing

IMB with lowest list price after OMRON E2A
