The Baumer IFRM 04P15A1/L proximity sensor is precision-engineered for performance in applications that demand compact size and high-frequency switching. With a nominal sensing distance of 1 mm and a flush mounting design, it ensures accurate detection of nearby metallic targets without false triggering. Operating on a wide 6 to 30 VDC voltage supply, it delivers a PNP make function (Normally Open) output circuit with a maximum output current of 200 mA. This model supports a high-speed switching frequency of 5 kHz, making it suitable for fast-moving automation systems. The red LED indicator offers clear visual feedback on sensing status, helping maintenance teams quickly identify sensor operation during runtime.
The sensor is housed in a rugged stainless steel cylindrical body with a 4 mm diameter and 25 mm housing length, built to handle industrial-grade mechanical stress. It includes an integrated 2-meter cable for plug-and-play installation in existing machinery. With LCP material on the sensing face, it ensures both chemical resistance and electrical insulation. The unit comes with reverse polarity and short-circuit protection for enhanced circuit safety. Thanks to its IP67 protection rating, the IFRM 04P15A1/L performs reliably even in dusty or wet industrial environments, and it operates across a temperature range of -25Β°C to +75Β°C, making it robust for shop floors, assembly lines, and factory automation panels.
The Baumer 1mm Proximity Sensor IFRM 04P15A1/L is ideal for detecting the presence or position of small metal parts in confined automation setups. Commonly used in compact mechanical assemblies, conveyor tracking systems, and bottling line equipment, it is valued for its precise detection even in fast-paced operations. Maintenance engineers find it easy to install and highly dependable for fault-free operation in control panels. Its compact size and strong performance make it especially useful for retrofitting old machines without major redesign. For engineering students and educational labs, this sensor offers a practical way to understand real-world object detection using industrial-grade technology. Whether you're automating packaging machinery or upgrading inspection stations, this model delivers consistent, high-speed proximity sensing where space and reliability matter most.
