Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S35F22PCM1 Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S35F22PCM1 is a short-body M30 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi ICB series, it combines increased sensing range with a rugged nickel-plated brass housing and a PNP normally closed (NC) output for dependable industrial position and presence detection.
Featuring a rated operating distance of 22 mm, the ICB30S35F22PCM1 uses a quasi-flush mounting configuration to provide increased detection range while retaining a compact M30 format. Its short-body construction is particularly useful where installation depth is limited, while the cylindrical threaded barrel allows secure mechanical positioning in machine frames and mounting brackets.
The sensor operates from a 10–36 V DC supply, supports output currents up to 200 mA and has a maximum switching frequency of 100 Hz. An M12 plug connection, IP67 protection and an operating temperature range of -25 to +70 °C make it well suited to factory automation, material handling and machine-building applications.

Increased-Range Metal Detection for Industrial Automation
Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic objects without physical contact by monitoring changes in an electromagnetic field at the sensing face. This non-contact principle helps minimise mechanical wear while providing repeatable position, presence and end-of-travel detection for automated machinery and production equipment.
The Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S35F22PCM1 combines an increased 22 mm sensing distance with a compact M30 short-body housing. Its PNP normally closed output enables integration with compatible PLC inputs and control circuits, while the M12 connector facilitates quick installation and sensor replacement during machine maintenance.
