Built to ensure reliable detection in demanding automation setups, the Baumer IFFM 08P1701/O1L features a compact 8 mm rectangular housing with flush mounting, enabling space-efficient integration into control panels and equipment. This proximity sensor operates on a 6 to 36 VDC supply voltage and offers a 2 mm nominal sensing distance with low hysteresis (3β20% of Sr), delivering consistent and repeatable output even in high-vibration environments. The sensor is equipped with a PNP make function (Normally Open) output and supports a maximum output current of 200 mA, making it suitable for fast-switching industrial circuits.
The switching frequency of 5 kHz enables the IFFM 08P1701/O1L to track rapid movement with high responsiveness, while the integrated red LED provides real-time status indication for easy troubleshooting. Its die-cast zinc nickel-plated body ensures long-lasting durability, and the PBT sensing face resists wear in environments with dust or moisture. The sensor includes built-in short-circuit and reverse polarity protection, along with a 2-meter pre-wired cable for hassle-free installation. Rated at IP67, this sensor can operate reliably in harsh industrial settings ranging from -25 to +75Β°C, delivering stable performance across packaging lines, CNC machines, and robotic arms.
The IFFM 08P1701/O1L is widely used in automated production lines where small parts require accurate, non-contact detection. In conveyor-based systems, it helps track metal components or detect jams with high-speed switching. Maintenance teams in manufacturing plants rely on this model to ensure sensor longevity and reduce unplanned downtime, especially in dusty, humid, or oily environments. For tool positioning in CNC machines and robotic gripper sensing, the sensorβs flush mounting and compact design offer perfect alignment even in tight enclosures. Engineering students and junior engineers find this sensor especially useful when working on automation prototypes, thanks to its simple 2-wire connection and clear red LED status indicator. Whether you're upgrading existing systems or building new ones, the Baumer IFFM 08P1701/O1L delivers a reliable, plug-and-play sensing solution trusted by professionals worldwide.
