The Baumer IFRM 05P15A3/KS35PL proximity switch delivers precise and rapid detection using inductive sensor technology optimized for metal targets. With a nominal sensing distance of 1 mm and a switching frequency of 5 kHz, it ensures fast and reliable feedback in automation cycles. The device supports a PNP make function (NO) output circuit and operates within a 6β30 VDC supply range, consuming just 12 mA of current at no load. Built with a cylindrical threaded stainless steel housing and a LCP sensing face, it provides excellent mechanical strength and resistance to oils, dust, and harsh process conditions.
Compact in design with a 5 mm diameter and 20 mm housing length, the IFRM 05P15A3/KS35PL is ideal for installations with limited space. The integrated M8 flylead connector and a 200 mm cable ensure easy, vibration-resistant connections. With a voltage drop of less than 2 VDC and output current capacity of 200 mA, the sensor is engineered to maintain stable signal integrity. Its IP67 protection rating makes it suitable for outdoor, dusty, or washdown areas, while a bright red LED output indicator provides visual confirmation of operation, simplifying on-site diagnostics.
Applications of Baumer IFRM 05P15A3/KS35PL
The IFRM 05P15A3/KS35PL proximity switch is commonly used in compact automation systems such as robotic grippers, small conveyors, and tool positioning stations. In automated sorting or inspection setups, it ensures quick presence detection of small metallic parts. The flush mounting and high-frequency response make it highly effective for use in high-speed indexing tables or packaging machines, where sensor delay could cause miscounts or rejects. Its stainless steel build makes it a dependable choice for food-grade or machining environments, where chemical resistance and reliability are non-negotiable. Maintenance engineers and system integrators prefer this model for its durable flylead connection and fast-reacting, low-hysteresis sensing performance. Whether in automotive jigs, pick-and-place robots, or compact control panels, this sensor helps streamline operations with minimal maintenance overhead.
