Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S30N15NOM1 Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S30N15NOM1 is a compact 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 a robust cylindrical metal housing with an NPN normally open (NO) output for straightforward integration with compatible PLCs and industrial control equipment.
This model features a non-flush sensing configuration with a rated operating distance of 15 mm. Its short-body M30 construction provides a practical solution where installation space is limited, while the threaded barrel allows accurate sensor positioning and secure mounting on machine frames, brackets and automated equipment.
The ICB30S30N15NOM1 operates from a 10–36 V DC supply and uses an M12 plug connection for convenient installation, replacement and maintenance. Its industrial construction and IP67 protection make it well suited to position monitoring, component detection, conveyor systems and general factory automation.

Reliable Non-Contact Metal Detection for Industrial Automation
Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic objects through an electromagnetic sensing field without requiring physical contact with the target. This operating principle eliminates mechanical contact at the sensing point, helping reduce wear while providing repeatable presence and position feedback for automated machinery.
The Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S30N15NOM1 combines a 15 mm sensing distance with a compact M30 short-body housing and NPN normally open output. Its non-flush design is particularly useful where increased target clearance is required, while the M12 connector allows the sensor to be disconnected quickly during installation or maintenance.
