Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi ICS08L45N04PCM5 Inductive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi ICS08L45N04PCM5 is a compact M8 inductive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic objects in industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi ICS08 extended-range inductive sensor series, it combines a long stainless steel threaded housing, extended sensing distance and dependable solid-state switching for precise position and presence detection.
This sensor provides a rated operating distance of 4 mm and is designed for non-flush mounting, providing an extended sensing range where the sensor face can project clear of surrounding metal. Its 3-wire PNP normally closed (NC) output provides reliable switching for compatible PLCs, controllers and industrial machine-control systems.
With a 10–36 V DC supply, maximum output current of 200 mA and maximum switching frequency of 2 kHz, the ICS08L45N04PCM5 provides responsive detection for automated machinery and high-cycle production equipment. Its M8 plug connector, M8 × 58 mm stainless steel housing, wide -25 °C to +80 °C operating range and IP67 protection rating provide a durable and easily serviceable sensing solution for demanding industrial installations.

Extended-Range Metal Detection for Industrial Automation
Inductive proximity sensors detect metallic targets by generating an electromagnetic sensing field and monitoring changes produced when metal enters that field. Because detection takes place without physical contact, this technology eliminates mechanical switch wear and provides repeatable operation for high-cycle machinery, automated assemblies and precision positioning systems.
The ICS08L45N04PCM5 combines a compact M8 stainless steel housing with an extended 4 mm sensing distance and switching frequency up to 2 kHz. Its PNP normally closed output, non-flush sensing arrangement and detachable M8 connector make it particularly suitable for machine builders and automation engineers requiring greater detection range from a compact cylindrical sensor without sacrificing switching speed or industrial durability.
Typical Applications
- Compact industrial machinery and automation equipment.
- Extended-range metallic component presence detection.
- Machine position and end-point sensing.
- Automated assembly and manufacturing systems.
- Tool selection and monitoring equipment.
- High-speed production and handling machinery.
- Conveyor and material-handling systems.
- Robotic position and movement detection.
