ICB18S30F08POM1

Proximity sensors are electronic devices used to detect the presence of objects within their range of operation. The ICB18S30F08POM1 is a specific type of proximity sensor manufactured by Inductive Automation. It is used in industrial automation and process control systems to detect the presence of metallic objects within its range of operation. It has a sensing range of 12 mm and can detect objects up to 8 mm in diameter.

The ICB18S30F08POM1 uses an inductive technique to detect nearby objects. It consists of two parts: a coil and an armature. The coil is an electromagnetic field generator, and the armature is the sensing device. When the coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is generated. When an object enters the sensing field of the coil, it causes a change in the field. This change is detected by the armature, and it activates the output circuit accordingly.

The ICB18S30F08POM1 is capable of detecting objects made of ferrous, non-ferrous, and conductive materials. It can detect objects up to 8 mm in diameter and 12 mm in size. It is also capable of differentiating between metal and non-metal objects, meaning it can detect objects of the same size and shape regardless of their material make-up.

The ICB18S30F08POM1 has a variety of applications in industrial automation and process control. It can be used to detect the presence of metal objects, such as tools, parts, or materials. It can also be used to detect the absence of metal objects, making it an ideal solution for applications such as conveyor belt systems or obstacle detection systems. The ICB18S30F08POM1 is also used in position detection applications, as it is capable of detecting the location of objects within its range of operation.

The ICB18S30F08POM1 is a versatile and reliable proximity sensor that is used in a variety of industrial automation applications. Its robust design, versatile sensing range, and accurate object detection capabilities make it an ideal choice for many industrial processes. Whether it’s used for position detection, absent object detection, or other industrial process control applications, the ICB18S30F08POM1 is a reliable and durable proximity sensor solution.
