Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi IA30ASF15DCM1 Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi IA30ASF15DCM1 is a robust M30 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial automation and machine-control applications. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi IA30 extended-range series, this sensor combines a 15 mm nominal sensing distance with a compact short-body cylindrical construction for dependable industrial metal detection.
The IA30ASF15DCM1 features a 2-wire DC normally closed (NC) output, flush-mountable sensing face and an M12 connector. This configuration provides straightforward integration into compatible industrial control circuits while allowing quick electrical disconnection during installation, servicing or sensor replacement.
Operating from a 10–40 V DC supply, the IA30ASF15DCM1 supports a 5–100 mA output current and switching frequencies up to 400 Hz. Its nickel-plated brass housing, IP67 protection and operating temperature range of -25 °C to +70 °C make it suitable for conveyors, automated machinery, material handling and production equipment.
