Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi IA18ASN08POM1HT-K High-Temperature Inductive Proximity Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi IA18ASN08POM1HT-K is a robust M18 high-temperature three-wire DC inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic objects in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi IA high-temperature series, it combines an extended sensing range, PNP normally open output and compact cylindrical construction for demanding sensing applications.

Using inductive sensing technology, the IA18ASN08POM1HT-K detects conductive metallic targets without physical contact, helping to minimise mechanical wear while providing repeatable switching in automated equipment. Its nickel-plated brass housing and non-flush sensing arrangement provide an 8 mm nominal sensing distance, while the high-temperature design allows operation in environments where standard proximity sensors may be unsuitable.

With a 10–30 V DC rated operating voltage, 500 Hz operating frequency and temperature range of -40 to +100 °C, the IA18ASN08POM1HT-K is designed for demanding industrial sensing duties. Its M12 plug connection simplifies installation and replacement, while IP67 protection supports dependable operation in harsh machine environments.

High-Temperature Metal Detection for Industrial Automation

Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic targets by generating an electromagnetic field at the sensing face and monitoring changes caused when conductive material enters that field. This contactless operating principle eliminates mechanical contact with the target, helping to reduce wear while providing repeatable position and presence detection in automated machinery.

The Carlo Gavazzi IA18ASN08POM1HT-K is specifically designed to extend this reliable sensing principle into elevated-temperature applications. Its 8 mm non-flush sensing range, PNP normally open output, rugged nickel-plated brass housing and operating capability up to +100 °C make it suitable for industrial machinery where both temperature resistance and dependable metal detection are required.

Typical Applications

• High-temperature industrial machinery.
• Metal component presence and position detection.
• Automated production and processing equipment.
• Conveyor and material handling systems exposed to elevated temperatures.
• Industrial ovens and heat-processing machinery where installation conditions remain within the sensor rating.
