Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi IA08BSN40PO Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi IA08BSN40PO is a compact M8 extended-range inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi IA08 series, this short-body cylindrical sensor combines a stainless steel housing with a three-wire PNP normally open (NO) output for integration with compatible PLCs, controllers and machine control equipment.
The IA08BSN40PO uses inductive sensing technology to detect metallic objects without physical contact, helping reduce mechanical switching wear and supporting dependable operation in repetitive industrial processes. Its non-flush / unshielded design provides an extended rated sensing distance of 4 mm, offering increased detection range from a compact M8 sensor body.
Operating from a 10–30 V DC supply with an operating frequency of 1 kHz, the IA08BSN40PO provides responsive and reliable target detection. The sensor features an integrated 2 m cable, yellow LED status indication, stainless steel construction and IP67 protection, providing a robust sensing solution for industrial automation equipment.

Extended-Range Non-Contact Detection for Industrial Automation
Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic objects by generating an electromagnetic sensing field and monitoring the change produced when conductive material enters that field. Because detection takes place without physical contact, this technology avoids mechanical switching wear and provides reliable operation in repetitive industrial processes.
The non-flush construction of the Carlo Gavazzi IA08BSN40PO provides an extended 4 mm sensing distance from its compact M8 stainless steel housing. Combined with its PNP normally open output, 1 kHz operating frequency and integrated 2 m cable, the sensor is well suited to machine positioning, component detection, counting and automated manufacturing applications.
Typical Applications
