Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ICB30L50N40PC Inductive Proximity Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi ICB30L50N40PC is a long-body M30 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic targets in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi ICB series, this increased-range sensor combines a robust cylindrical threaded housing with a PNP normally closed (NC) output for dependable integration with industrial control equipment.

Featuring a durable nickel-plated brass housing and non-flush mounting configuration, the ICB30L50N40PC provides an increased rated operating distance of 40 mm. This extended detection range is particularly useful where greater separation between the sensor face and metallic target is required while maintaining reliable switching performance.

The ICB30L50N40PC operates from a 10–36 V DC supply, supports a maximum output current of 200 mA and provides a maximum switching frequency of 100 Hz. Its 2 m cable connection, IP67 protection and -25 to +70 °C operating temperature range make it suitable for demanding factory automation, material handling and machine-building applications.

Increased-Range Metal Detection for Industrial Automation

Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic objects without physical contact by monitoring changes in an electromagnetic field at the sensing face. This non-contact operating principle helps minimise mechanical wear and provides repeatable position, presence and end-of-travel detection for automated machinery and production equipment.

The Carlo Gavazzi ICB30L50N40PC combines an increased 40 mm sensing distance with a rugged M30 long-body housing, making it particularly useful where the sensor cannot be positioned close to the target. Its PNP normally closed output and standard DC supply range allow straightforward integration into compatible PLC inputs and industrial control circuits.

Typical Applications

• Industrial machinery position and presence detection.
• Conveyor and material handling systems.
• Metal component detection and counting.
• Automated assembly and production lines.
• Packaging and processing machinery.
• Machine tools and manufacturing equipment.
• End-position monitoring of moving machine components.
• OEM machine building and factory automation systems.
