ifm KI5087 Capacitive Proximity Sensor
The ifm KI5087 is an industrial noncontact material detection component used by maintenance and engineering teams responsible for keeping equipment operational. The capacitive proximity sensor serves a defined task within the larger control system. This page identifies the full manufacturer part number so purchasing departments can request the intended configuration instead of relying on a generic product-family description.
In service, these components may be encountered in level detection and object presence in handling systems. A failure can interrupt a machine sequence, generate unreliable signals or prevent a motor or actuator from operating as intended. Maintenance teams often prefer to replace a matching component because even small differences in voltage, connections, electrical behavior or mounting can require additional commissioning or wiring work. The manufacturer part number is therefore a useful starting point for sourcing.
For this particular model, documented characteristics include ki-series capacitive sensing, detects suitable nonmetallic and metallic target materials, and industrial proximity switch construction. These details help distinguish KI5087 from neighboring models within the same product range. They should still be checked against the installed nameplate, equipment drawings and manufacturer documentation rather than taken as a guarantee of interchangeability.
Technical Details and Product Specifications
Typical Industrial Applications
Level detection and object presence in handling systems. Actual use depends on the overall system configuration and installation conditions.
Replacement and Compatibility Notes
When considering a maintenance replacement, check exact supply, output and mounting conditions from nameplate and data sheet. Review the original installation and any relevant safety or machine approval requirements before selecting another product. Corwin Solutions can receive an RFQ for the exact model, including requirements for unused, surplus or previously used stock where acceptable, without assuming that any condition or quantity is currently available.

To make a useful sourcing inquiry, provide the full model designation, requested quantity, delivery destination, condition preference, and any revision or serial details visible on the original unit. A nameplate photograph can help identify suffixes that may not be obvious in older maintenance records. Lead time, sourcing options, pricing and condition are confirmed only when a quotation is prepared.
