Baumer IFRM 03P1501/KS35L Proximity Sensor

The Baumer IFRM 03P1501/KS35L features a flush-mount design in a sleek 3 mm cylindrical housing, optimized for micro-space installations and sensor arrays in automation panels. It offers a precise nominal sensing distance of 0.8 mm and operates on a wide voltage range of 6 to 30 VDC, supporting seamless integration with most modern PLC systems. This model uses a PNP make function (NO) output and supports up to 100 mA output current, making it ideal for low-power, high-speed switching applications.

The sensor delivers a quick response with a switching frequency of 3 kHz, ensuring accurate object detection in high-speed or rotating equipment. Its housing is built with robust stainless steel and a POM sensing face, offering corrosion resistance and mechanical durability. The 22 mm housing length provides secure mounting, while the integrated red LED indicator on the rear offers instant visibility during setup and maintenance. The Male M8 connector with a 2.4-meter PVC cable enables flexible wiring in confined enclosures or machines with frequent vibration.

Engineered for reliability, this model includes both short circuit protection and reverse polarity protection to safeguard control circuits during field installations. It is rated IP67, ensuring complete protection against dust and water ingress—even during washdowns or humid operating conditions. With an operating temperature range of -25°C to +75°C, the Baumer IFRM 03P1501/KS35L performs consistently in varied industrial settings.
