Where it sits in the control system
The IG0006 is the device-level element in an IFM circuit breaker installation. It receives the field signals and control supply listed above — 10...30 V DC (IEC 60947-5-2) — and switches or conditions the load within the the rated ratings shown in the Specifications table. Wiring and protective devices are sized to those same numbers, not to a generic assumption.
Typical installations place it in distribution boards, motor protection circuits, panel feeders, where the unit is matched to the original catalog number and the enclosure provides non-flush mountable support. Record the catalog number and revision from the nameplate of the installed unit before specifying a like-for-like spare.
Selection notes for IFM IG0006
IFM IG0006 — Sensor or detector for object detection, distance measurement and status feedback on production lines. The figures below are taken from the specification table on this page for catalog number IG0006; confirm the installed unit's part number and revision so the replacement matches both electrically and mechanically.
- Weight: 68 g — Match it to the existing panel and upstream protection.
- Enclosure rating: IP67 (IEC 60529) — Record it with the other nameplate data when sourcing a replacement.
- Frequency: 25 Hz — Confirm the revision of the installed unit before a like-for-like replacement.
- Mounting: non-flush mountable — Use it as the reference when cross-checking a current-production equivalent.
For a discontinued unit, match function and electrical ratings rather than the label alone.
Common questions about IG0006
Q.For IG0006, what does the specification table state about overload capacity?
The specification table lists overload capacity = no for IFM IG0006. Check the revision of the installed unit if the catalog number has been superseded.
Q.Which value is published under dimensions (H x W x D) for catalog number IG0006?
For IG0006, dimensions (H x W x D) is given as M18 x 1 / L = 80 mm. Compare it with the nameplate of the installed unit before ordering.
Q.Before ordering IG0006, which mounting entry should be checked?
The mounting entry quoted above is non-flush mountable. Confirm this figure against the unit currently in the panel.
Q.Can the IG0006 replace the unit currently installed in my panel?
Compare catalog number IG0006 and the ratings above with the nameplate of the installed device. A current-production equivalent is selected by function and electrical rating, not by the label alone.
Q.How do I confirm compatibility of IG0006 before ordering?
Match the catalog number IG0006 and the specification values listed above against the installed unit, then confirm the firmware or hardware revision where a revision-sensitive part is involved.
