Where it sits in the control system
The II5842 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 II5842
IFM II5842 — 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 II5842; always cross-check the catalog number and hardware revision on the nameplate before placing an order.
- Enclosure rating: IP67 (IEC 60529) — Check this value against the nameplate of the installed unit before ordering.
- Rated torque: 50 Nm — Match it to the existing panel and upstream protection.
- Dimensions (H x W x D): M30 x 1.5 / L = 70 mm — Record it with the other nameplate data when sourcing a replacement.
- Overload capacity: yes — Confirm the revision of the installed unit before a like-for-like replacement.
Cross-check the ratings above with the installed device before confirming the order.
Common questions about II5842
Q.Before ordering II5842, which response time entry should be checked?
The response time entry quoted above is <= 1500 Hz switching frequency. Use the value as the reference when sourcing a current-production equivalent.
Q.Where can I find the operating temperature data for II5842?
It is listed in the specification table for IFM II5842 as -25...+70 °C (IEC 60068-2-1). Check the revision of the installed unit if the catalog number has been superseded.
Q.For II5842, what does the specification table state about overload capacity?
The specification table lists overload capacity = yes for IFM II5842. Compare it with the nameplate of the installed unit before ordering.
Q.Can the II5842 replace the unit currently installed in my panel?
Compare catalog number II5842 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.What should I include in an enquiry for II5842?
Send the full catalog number II5842, the required quantity and a photo of the nameplate. Stock, lead time and the applicable compliance documents can then be confirmed for IFM II5842.
