Baumer IFRM 06P37A3/S35L Proximity Sensor

The Baumer IFRM 06P37A3/S35L is a high-precision flush-type proximity sensor housed in a 36 mm cylindrical stainless steel body, engineered for robust performance in challenging automation environments. With a 6.5 mm diameter and a rugged PBT sensing face, it offers mechanical stability and resistance to wear, oils, and cleaning agents. Operating on a versatile 6–36 VDC power supply, this model outputs a PNP break function (normally closed) signal configuration, making it ideal for safety-interlocked and control-critical circuits.

The sensor achieves a precise 2 mm nominal sensing distance with 3–20% hysteresis, providing stable and repeatable object detection even under minor alignment variations. Its 5 kHz switching frequency enables rapid signal transmission for use in high-speed production lines. Equipped with a rear-facing 3-port red LED output indicator, maintenance teams can instantly verify operational status. The M8 connector interface ensures a secure, fast, and standardized installation process across equipment types. With integrated short-circuit protection and reverse polarity protection, the sensor meets stringent electrical safety requirements. Rated at IP67, it offers full protection against dust ingress and water immersion, and operates effectively across temperatures ranging from -25°C to +75°C. Designed with Baumer’s signature quality and backed by global engineering trust, the IFRM 06P37A3/S35L stands out as a reliable sensing solution for precise machine control.

The Baumer 36 mm Housing Length Proximity Sensor IFRM 06P37A3/S35L is highly suitable for applications that demand accurate object detection in tight or embedded mounting spaces. Its compact design and flush-mount configuration make it ideal for use in packaging machines, robotic arms, indexing tables, and automated inspection stations. The normally closed PNP output is particularly useful in fail-safe detection setups, where the absence of a signal indicates an abnormal condition, triggering safety systems or machine stops.

With its fast 5 kHz switching response, it supports rapid product movement environments such as bottling lines, label applicators, or small parts assembly machines. Maintenance engineers benefit from the LED status indicator, which speeds up diagnostics and minimizes downtime. The M8 connector ensures hassle-free integration and easy sensor replacement during servicing. Additionally, the wide operating voltage and IP67 protection make it a dependable component in both cleanroom and workshop environments. Engineering students and early-career technicians can easily understand its setup and function, making it a great educational example of industrial sensing best practices. This sensor is designed for professionals who value speed, safety, and simplicity in their automation infrastructure.
