Carlo Gavazzi ICF Full-Metal Inductive Proximity Sensors with an IO-Link come in M12, M18, or M30 housing sizes and feature flush or non-flush mounting designs. These sensors feature long sensing ranges that allow for safer operation so that the moving target can be positioned farther away from the sensor. High-visibility LEDs enable status checks, and the visual adjustment indicator helps ensure the target’s safe detection during the installation on the machine. ICF proximity sensors can withstand pressure on the sensing face and are impact-, vibration-, and shock-resistant. Carlo Gavazzi ICF Proximity Sensors are suitable for machine tools, mobile equipment, and metalworking applications.
ICF inductive sensors include an IO-link that is required to change sensor settings during initial installation. However, the sensors can be used as standard transistor output sensors without an IO-lin operating environment, enabling application flexibility.
