Where it sits in the control system
The IG5361 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 standard panel or DIN-rail 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 IG5361
IFM IG5361 — 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 IG5361; always cross-check the catalog number and hardware revision on the nameplate before placing an order.
- Certifications: CE, cULus — Check this value against the nameplate of the installed unit before ordering.
- Supply voltage: 10...30 V DC (IEC 60947-5-2) — Match it to the existing panel and upstream protection.
- Frequency: 500 Hz — Record it with the other nameplate data when sourcing a replacement.
- Weight: 163.2 g — Confirm the revision of the installed unit before a like-for-like replacement.
For a discontinued unit, match function and electrical ratings rather than the label alone.
Common questions about IG5361
Q.Which value is published under response time for catalog number IG5361?
For IG5361, response time is given as <= 1500 Hz switching frequency. Use the value as the reference when sourcing a current-production equivalent.
Q.Before ordering IG5361, which operating temperature entry should be checked?
The operating temperature entry quoted above is -25...+70 °C (IEC 60068-2-1). Check the revision of the installed unit if the catalog number has been superseded.
Q.Where can I find the overload capacity data for IG5361?
It is listed in the specification table for IFM IG5361 as yes. Compare it with the nameplate of the installed unit before ordering.
Q.How do I confirm compatibility of IG5361 before ordering?
Match the catalog number IG5361 and the specification values listed above against the installed unit, then confirm the firmware or hardware revision where a revision-sensitive part is involved.
Q.Can the IG5361 replace the unit currently installed in my panel?
Compare catalog number IG5361 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.
