Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S30N15NO Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S30N15NO is a compact M30 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi ICB series, this sensor combines a short cylindrical threaded housing with a 15 mm rated operating distance for dependable position and presence detection.
The ICB30S30N15NO features an NPN normally open (NO) output and is designed for non-flush mounting. Operating from a broad 10–36 V DC supply, it is suitable for integration with compatible PLC inputs, machine controllers and other industrial automation equipment.
Its durable nickel-plated brass M30 housing, integral 2 m cable, solid-state switching and IP67 ingress protection provide a robust sensing solution for industrial installations. The short-body construction helps minimise mounting space while retaining the practical advantages of an M30 threaded sensor format.
