The Baumer IFRM 08P17A1/KS35L is a compact flush-mounted inductive sensor offering a precise sensing distance of 2 mm, tailored for detecting metal objects in fast-paced automation environments. With a PNP make function (normally open) output, this miniature switch is widely compatible with modern PLCs and control circuits. Its high switching frequency of 5 kHz ensures real-time responsiveness, making it suitable for quick detection cycles without delay. Operating within a voltage supply range of 6 to 36 VDC and consuming only 12 mA at no load, it delivers both energy efficiency and signal stability.
Engineered with a cylindrical stainless steel threaded body of just 8 mm diameter and 40 mm length, the sensor is ideal for machines where installation space is minimal. Its rugged housing resists vibration, and the PBT sensing face adds resistance to wear and environmental stress. This sensor handles up to 200 mA output current with a voltage drop under 2 VDC, ensuring reliable operation with low power loss. A Flylead M8 connector allows flexible wiring in tight control cabinets or moving components. The IP67 protection rating ensures full dust and water resistance, while its operational range from -25°C to +75°C supports use in a wide range of industrial environments. The integrated red LED output indicator simplifies troubleshooting and monitoring.
Applications of Baumer OT500.DL-GLIAJ.72F
The Baumer 2mm PNP NO Miniature Switch IFRM 08P17A1/KS35L is widely adopted in high-speed bottling machines, assembly line indexing systems, and tool changers in CNC machines—anywhere space is limited, and precise metal object sensing is critical. In robotic arms, this sensor detects part presence before grip activation. On compact conveyors, it enables end-of-line quality checks and packaging position sensing.
Junior maintenance engineers find the LED diagnostic indicator helpful during setup and troubleshooting. Senior automation technicians value its rugged build, flush design, and high-frequency response, which minimize downtime and false triggers in production. This model is also ideal for technical education and training labs where students need hands-on understanding of miniature inductive switches and PNP output wiring. Built to perform with durability, accuracy, and ease of integration, the Baumer IFRM 08P17A1/KS35L sets a benchmark in miniature inductive sensor technology.
