Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ICB12LN08PO Inductive Proximity Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi ICB12LN08PO is a long-body M12 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi ICB12 series, it combines an extended sensing range with a durable nickel-plated brass threaded housing for dependable position, presence and movement detection.

The ICB12LN08PO provides an extended rated operating distance of 8 mm with a non-flush mounting configuration and a PNP normally open (NO) output. Its operating frequency of up to 2 kHz supports responsive detection of moving metallic components in automated production, conveying and machine-control applications.

Operating from a 10–36 V DC supply, the sensor supports an output current of up to 200 mA at 50 °C and is supplied with an integral 2 m PVC oil-resistant cable. IP67 protection, yellow LED indication and integrated short-circuit, reverse-polarity and transient protection help provide dependable performance in demanding industrial environments.

Extended-Range Metal Detection for Industrial Automation

Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic targets without requiring physical contact between the sensing face and the target. This contactless sensing principle helps reduce mechanical wear while providing repeatable position, presence and movement detection in automated machinery, production equipment and material handling systems.

The ICB12LN08PO combines a long M12 threaded body with an extended 8 mm rated sensing distance, non-flush installation and PNP normally open output. Its 2 kHz operating frequency, integral 2 m cable and IP67 nickel-plated brass construction make it a practical solution where increased sensing distance is required from a compact cylindrical sensor.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial conveyor and material handling systems.
  • Metal component presence and position detection.
  • Automated assembly and production machinery.
  • Machine position and end-of-travel monitoring.
  • Packaging and processing equipment.
  • Metallic workpiece counting and detection.
  • Factory automation and PLC-controlled machinery.
  • OEM machine-building applications requiring extended sensing range.
