Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S35N40PO Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi ICB30S35N40PO is a high-performance M30 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic objects in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi ICB inductive sensor series, it combines an extended sensing range, compact short-body construction and robust industrial design for dependable position and presence detection.
This sensor provides a rated operating distance of 40 mm and is designed for non-flush mounting, delivering an extended detection range where greater separation between the sensing face and metallic target is required. Its 3-wire PNP normally open (NO) output enables straightforward integration with compatible PLCs, controllers and industrial automation equipment.
With a 10–36 V DC operating voltage and an integrated cable connection, the ICB30S35N40PO provides a practical solution for machine positioning, component detection and production monitoring. Its compact M30 × 35 mm short-body format is particularly useful where mounting depth is restricted while a long sensing distance is required.

Reliable Long-Range Metal Detection for Industrial Automation
Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic targets by generating an electromagnetic sensing field and monitoring changes produced when metal enters that field. This contactless operating principle avoids the mechanical wear associated with conventional limit switches and provides repeatable detection for high-cycle industrial machinery.
The ICB30S35N40PO combines a substantial 40 mm sensing distance with a compact short M30 housing and PNP normally open switching. This makes it particularly suitable for machine builders and automation engineers who need to detect metallic components from greater distances without requiring a long sensor body behind the mounting point.
