The sensor supports PNP normally-open switching and operates on 10–30 V DC, providing stable detection performance across a wide range of machinery. With a high 2,000 Hz switching frequency, it captures rapid movements accurately, while its IP68-rated VISTAL® housing ensures long-term durability in harsh, wet, or dusty factory environments.
The IQ10-06NPSKWDSS07 is engineered to deliver consistent metal detection even in challenging operating conditions. Its fast response helps reduce miscounts and ensures smooth machine cycles, particularly in packaging, assembly, or automated handling systems. The rugged housing material resists mechanical stress, while the sealed design protects the electronics from moisture and vibration. Safety features such as short-circuit and power-up pulse protection improve system reliability, especially in equipment that runs continuously. With a broad operating temperature range and a pre-mounted 6-meter cable, the sensor simplifies installation and provides dependable performance for machine builders and production engineers looking for stable, low-maintenance detection solutions.
The IQ10-06NPSKWDSS07 stands out because it packs fast, precise metal detection into a slim, rugged housing built for demanding automation environments. Its high switching speed, long cable reach, and IP68 durability make it a dependable “install-and-forget” sensor for machines that can’t afford downtime or inconsistent triggering.
This sensor eliminates unreliable detection in tight, fast-moving industrial processes. It tackles issues like missed targets, vibration interference, and harsh operating conditions by delivering rapid, stable, and repeatable switching performance. It removes guesswork from metal detection, ensuring smooth machine operation and reducing maintenance interruptions.

In manufacturing environments where metal components travel rapidly along conveyors, maintaining accurate counts can be challenging. Small gaps, vibrations, or inconsistent spacing often cause traditional sensors to miss items. The IQ10-06NPSKWDSS07 helps solve this by responding extremely quickly to objects passing through its sensing zone, even at high speeds. Its compact geometry fits in narrow sections of the conveyor frame, and the durable sealed housing withstands exposure to lubricants, dust, and coolant spray. By providing repeatable detection with minimal drift, the sensor helps ensure downstream stations receive the correct number of items, reducing misfeeds, stoppages, and quality issues.
In robotic assembly cells, confirming that a metal part is correctly positioned before gripping is essential for smooth operation. Misalignment by even a few millimeters can cause robot errors or damage tooling. The IQ10-06NPSKWDSS07 offers a consistent sensing point that quickly verifies whether a bracket, plate, or insert is in the correct pickup area. Its fast response supports high-speed robot cycles, while the non-flush mounting option provides better reach in tight mechanical layouts. Because robots generate constant vibration, the sensor’s strong mechanical resistance contributes to stable readings. This leads to fewer rejected cycles and more predictable assembly flow.
Packaging machines rely on metal guides and forming plates that must remain precisely positioned to maintain package shape and smooth material flow. Any shift in these parts can trigger jams or create improperly sealed products. The IQ10-06NPSKWDSS07 can be installed to detect whether these metal elements stay in their correct operating position. Its sealed design resists moisture from washdowns and mechanical wear from continuous machine vibration. The sensor’s small footprint allows placement near moving belts or sealing units without interfering with machine motion. Early detection of misalignment helps operators prevent defective packaging and minimize unnecessary downtime.
Automated transfer systems often use sliding metal plates or shuttles to move goods between stations. These plates must fully return to their home position before the next cycle begins. The IQ10-06NPSKWDSS07 provides reliable confirmation thanks to its stable switching behavior and controlled sensing hysteresis. Even when dust, temperature changes, or mechanical shock are present, the sensor maintains consistent detection. Its rugged construction resists wear from repeated equipment motion. By signaling the control system that the plate is safely reset, the sensor helps prevent collision risks, ensures smoother transitions between operations, and contributes to uninterrupted handling performance.
