The Baumer IFRM 06N1701/L is a flush-mounted miniature proximity sensor built for tight installations where reliable, short-range detection is critical. With a compact 6.5 mm cylindrical body and a smooth stainless steel housing, this sensor delivers consistent performance in confined environments. It operates within a voltage range of 6 to 36 VDC and features an NPN make function (normally open) output with a maximum output current of 200 mA. The 2 mm nominal sensing distance provides precise detection of metallic objects at close range, while its fast 5 kHz switching frequency ensures real-time responsiveness in high-speed operations.
Engineered with a PBT sensing face and sealed to an IP67 protection rating, the IFRM 06N1701/L withstands exposure to dust, moisture, and harsh operating environments. A 2-meter pre-wired cable simplifies installation in compact panels, and the built-in LED indicator provides quick visual feedback during commissioning or troubleshooting. It also includes integrated short-circuit and reverse polarity protection for improved safety and longevity. With a housing length of just 30 mm, this sensor is trusted across sectors like precision tooling, electronics assembly, and compact automation systems.
