Baumer IFRM 05N37A1/S35L Proximity Sensor

The IFRM 05N37A1/S35L from Baumer features a nominal sensing distance of 1.6 mm and a durable flush-mount cylindrical housing ideal for tight mechanical assemblies. Its NPN break function (NC) output reliably switches up to 200 mA, and it operates within a wide 6–30 VDC voltage range. With a fast switching frequency of 3 kHz, this inductive sensor responds swiftly to target changes, making it suitable for real-time detection tasks. The housing is constructed from high-grade stainless steel for enhanced durability in industrial environments, while the LCP sensing face offers strong resistance against oils and chemicals. At just 5 mm in diameter and 45 mm in length, it easily fits into compact enclosures. The integrated M8 connector ensures secure and efficient electrical connections, while a 3-port red LED output indicator helps with quick visual diagnostics during setup and operation. With IP67 protection and an operating temperature range from -25°C to +75°C, this sensor is built to perform reliably in dusty, wet, and high-vibration environments.

The Baumer IFRM 05N37A1/S35L is a top choice for engineers working in automation control panels, robotic end-effectors, and fixture alignment systems where precision and space optimization are critical. Its compact design and M8 connector make it suitable for OEM machinery and retrofit installations alike. In automotive production, it can be used for accurate metal part detection on moving lines. In electronic assembly units and pharmaceutical packaging equipment, the sensor offers fast feedback and long-term stability. Maintenance engineers benefit from the quick-connect M8 system and the sensor’s consistent performance across demanding cycles. Its versatility, rugged design, and signal clarity make it ideal for critical sensing applications in harsh industrial environments.
