Baumer IFRM 05P37A3/S05L Proximity Sensor

Engineered with Swiss precision, the IFRM 05P37A3/S05L delivers a nominal sensing distance of 1.6 mm and supports a high switching frequency of 3 kHz, enabling fast and accurate presence detection even in high-speed automation tasks. It uses a PNP break function (NC) output and operates within a voltage supply range of 6–30 VDC, ensuring broad compatibility with industrial control systems. The current consumption is minimal at just 12 mA, and the sensor can handle up to 200 mA of output current, making it ideal for energy-efficient systems. Built with a robust stainless steel cylindrical threaded housing and a 5 mm body, it is compact enough for subminiature applications and offers long-term durability even in harsh industrial environments. The sensing face is made of LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) for added thermal and chemical resistance. Equipped with a compact M5 connector and rated at IP67, this inductive sensor ensures dustproof and waterproof performance in challenging field conditions. Temperature tolerance ranges from -25°C to +75°C, and a red 2-port LED indicator allows for visual output confirmation during maintenance or setup. Every detail in the Baumer IFRM 05P37A3/S05L reflects the brand’s commitment to performance, longevity, and seamless integration with automation systems.

Applications of Baumer IFRM 05P37A3/S05L

The Baumer IFRM 05P37A3/S05L is best suited for space-constrained industrial environments where precision sensing is critical. In automated machinery, its flush mounting and subminiature size enable installation close to fast-moving components without risk of mechanical interference. The high-frequency response is ideal for conveyor systems, robotic arms, and packaging lines that demand rapid detection and feedback. Maintenance engineers prefer this model for tool position verification and end-of-travel sensing in tight enclosures where standard sensors won’t fit. Its stainless steel build and IP67 protection make it highly reliable for cooling systems, material handling, and automotive component assembly. Even in oil-splashed or dusty environments, the sensor remains stable and consistent, reducing the risk of unexpected downtime. With such a compact footprint and industrial-grade specs, the IFRM 05P37A3/S05L serves as a go-to choice for engineers seeking high precision in miniature form factors.
