Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi I.S.2 Magnetic Slot Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi I.S.2 is an industrial magnetic slot proximity sensor from the Carlo Gavazzi I Series, designed for reliable non-contact position and presence detection. Its slot-style housing makes it suitable for machinery and automation applications where a magnetic actuator can pass through or operate within the sensor's detection area.

The I.S.2 uses a change-over reed contact output, providing flexible switching for industrial control and signalling circuits. The contact is rated for a maximum switching voltage of 230 V AC, maximum switching current of 1 A and maximum switching power of 60 VA.

A durable plastic slot housing, integral PVC cable connection and IP67 protection make the Carlo Gavazzi I.S.2 suitable for demanding industrial environments. With an operating temperature range of -25 °C to +75 °C, it provides a straightforward magnetic sensing solution for automation, position monitoring and machine control applications.

Reliable Magnetic Position Detection for Industrial Automation

Magnetic proximity sensors provide contactless detection by responding to an appropriate magnetic actuator. This operating principle avoids the direct mechanical actuation required by conventional limit switches, making magnetic sensors useful for repetitive position monitoring and presence-detection applications.

The Carlo Gavazzi I.S.2 combines this magnetic sensing principle with a change-over contact, robust slot-style enclosure and IP67 environmental protection. It is well suited to industrial equipment requiring a simple and dependable magnetic switching signal for control, indication or position-monitoring functions.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machine position detection.
  • Automation and material-handling equipment.
  • Presence and movement detection.
  • Conveyor systems.
  • Mechanical positioning equipment.
  • Industrial control and signalling circuits.
  • OEM machinery and automated production equipment.
