ia05bsf10no – ind prox m5 npn no cab flush
Carlo Gavazzi IA05BSF10NO is a flush-mount M5 stainless-steel inductive proximity sensor with a 1.2 mm sensing distance, 10–30 V DC supply, 3-wire NPN normally-open output, 2 m cable and IP67 protection.
Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi IA05BSF10NO Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi IA05BSF10NO is a compact M5 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial automation and machine-control applications. Its short cylindrical body is particularly useful in machinery where installation space is limited.
The IA05BSF10NO features a 3-wire DC NPN normally-open (NO) output and operates from a 10–30 V DC supply. Its 1.2 mm nominal sensing distance and 4 kHz operating frequency provide responsive detection for high-cycle position, presence and component-monitoring applications.
Built around a durable stainless-steel M5 threaded housing, the IA05BSF10NO is designed for flush mounting and provides IP67 protection. A factory-fitted 2 m cable, yellow LED indication and operating temperature range of -25 °C to +70 °C make it a practical miniature sensor for demanding industrial installations.

Reliable Flush-Mount Metal Detection for Industrial Automation
Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic targets using an electromagnetic sensing field, allowing position and presence to be monitored without physical contact between the sensor and target. This operating principle eliminates mechanical contact wear and supports reliable repetitive operation in automated machinery.
The Carlo Gavazzi IA05BSF10NO combines this proven sensing technology with an exceptionally compact M5 stainless-steel body, flush mounting and a fast 4 kHz operating frequency. It is particularly useful for machine builders requiring dependable metal detection in confined locations where larger proximity sensors cannot easily be installed.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine position detection.
- Metal component presence sensing.
- Automated assembly equipment.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Material-handling equipment.
- Compact mechanisms and positioning systems.
- High-speed counting and detection applications.
- PLC-based industrial automation systems.
