Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ICS08S30N02NOM5 Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi ICS08S30N02NOM5 is a compact 3-wire M8 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi ICS08 series, this short-body sensor combines a stainless-steel threaded housing with a 2 mm rated operating distance for dependable position and presence detection.
The ICS08S30N02NOM5 features an NPN normally open (NO) output and operates from a 10–36 V DC supply. Its non-flush mounting configuration provides the extended 2 mm sensing range, while the integral M8 connector offers a compact detachable electrical connection for convenient installation, maintenance and sensor replacement.
With a maximum output current of 200 mA at 50 °C, a maximum switching frequency of 2 kHz and an operating temperature range from -25 to +80 °C, the ICS08S30N02NOM5 provides dependable industrial switching performance. Its IP67 protection and built-in short-circuit, reverse-polarity and transient protection further enhance reliability in demanding automation environments.
