Baumer IFFM 08N37A1/O1S35L Proximity Sensor

The Baumer IFFM 08N37A1/O1S35L proximity sensor is built with a rugged die-cast zinc nickel-plated housing and features a rectangular design with an 8 mm diameter and 45.9 mm length, allowing it to fit seamlessly into compact assemblies. It offers a flush mounting type and a 2 mm nominal sensing distance with minimal hysteresis (3–20% of Sr), ensuring stable and repeatable detection of metal targets in high-speed operations. With a switching frequency of 5 kHz, this sensor is ideal for fast-moving applications, while the NPN break function (NC) output circuit provides reliable signal integrity even in challenging environments. It operates on a wide voltage range of 6 to 36 VDC and delivers up to 200 mA output current, protected by both short circuit and reverse polarity protection. The integrated red LED indicator enhances visual diagnostics, and the M8 connector enables quick plug-and-play setup, minimizing downtime in maintenance workflows.

Thanks to its IP67 protection class, this sensor withstands exposure to dust, oil, and water, making it highly dependable in automotive, packaging, textile, and CNC machine environments. Whether it’s used in a robotics arm for precise part positioning or in conveyor systems for presence detection, the IFFM 08N37A1/O1S35L ensures consistent performance and long-term reliability. With a proven track record in industrial automation, this Baumer proximity sensor is a go-to choice for engineers who value both performance and longevity.

The IFFM 08N37A1/O1S35L is commonly used in tight-space automation setups where precision and response speed are critical. In automated assembly lines, it ensures exact part positioning before robotic arms engage. In packaging lines, it detects object presence or count at high speeds without physical contact. Maintenance engineers in automotive plants trust this model for metal detection on moving chassis or fixtures, while machine designers in the textile and printing industry use it to align fabrics or paper rolls with consistent accuracy. Its flush mounting, compact profile, and durable housing make it ideal for CNC machines, robotic tooling, small conveyors, and sensor retrofits in tight control panels. Whether in greenfield projects or MRO replacements, this model reduces downtime and improves detection reliability across multiple applications in the Indian manufacturing sector.
