The IFRH 12P1501/L: 10139768 from Baumer delivers dependable sensing with a nominal sensing distance of 2 mm and a flush-mount design, ensuring minimal interference in tight machine layouts. The sensor supports a PNP make function (Normally Open) output with a maximum current rating of 200 mA, making it suitable for a variety of logic-driven automation systems. Operating on a wide voltage supply range of 6 to 30 VDC and consuming only 12 mA in idle conditions, it ensures energy-efficient integration into PLC-based control panels.
Designed with a 12 mm cylindrical threaded brass housing</strong coated with nickel plating, this sensor resists corrosion and mechanical stress. Its PBT sensing face offers added durability in industrial applications with repetitive object proximity. With a 2 kHz switching frequency, the sensor can detect fast-moving metal components with high accuracy, which is critical in conveyors, rotary machines, and robotic arms. Itβs engineered to withstand a broad operating temperature range of -25Β°C to +180Β°C, and the IP67 protection rating guarantees reliable performance in wet, dusty, or humid environments. The integrated 2-meter cable simplifies wiring for fixed installations or panel-mount systems.
Industrial buyers trust the Baumer 2 mm PNP Inductive Sensor IFRH 12P1501/L for its consistent switching performance, rugged housing, and compatibility with automation control standards. The Baumer IFRH 12P1501/L is widely used in automated manufacturing lines for non-contact metal detection where space is limited and reliability is non-negotiable. Its flush-mount design makes it especially useful in compact assemblies, such as indexing tables, gripper heads, and jigs, where protruding sensors are not an option.
In bottling, packaging, and food-grade automation systems, the sensorβs fast switching speed of 2 kHz ensures it can detect caps, metallic trays, or components at high conveyor speeds. Its robust design and high thermal tolerance also make it suitable for heating tunnels, dryers, and applications near hot motors or pumps. The IP67 enclosure ensures long-term reliability even in areas exposed to splashing fluids, airborne dust, or machine oil.
Whether you're maintaining legacy equipment or designing new industrial machinery, the IFRH 12P1501/L offers plug-and-play compatibility with standard control interfaces and delivers years of maintenance-free operation. For plant engineers focused on uptime and reliability, this sensor is a dependable building block in any sensor network.
