ICS08, ICB12, ICB18 and ICB30 4-wire DC Proximity inductive sensors with complementary output function Benefits A complete family. Available in M8, M12, M18 and M30 housings with an operating distance from 2 to 22 mm. Less machine downtime. Lower risk of mechanical damage thanks to the extended range sensors with 2 times the standard operating distance. Easy to install. ICB sensors have a milled section for wrench grip and two different thread lengths. The user can choose between 2 m PVC cable and M12-disconnect plug versions. High precision. The onboard advanced microcontroller ensures better stability with respect to environmental influences, with highly repeatable measurements between -25 and +70C (up to +80C for ICS). Easy customization to specific OEM requests . Special sensing distance and timing functions or pig- tail solutions with special cables and connectors are possible on request. Product traceability. Permanently legible part number and serial number, laser engraved on the plastic cap, guarantee the traceability of every sensor. Description A complete family of high performance inductive sensors and represents Carlo Gavazzi standard solution for industrial automation equipments. It is available in 4 diameters: M8, M12, M18 and M30, in standard and extended sensing ranges, long and short rugged housings. Main functions Non contact detection of metal objects in general position-sensing and presence-sensing in industrial applications Particularly suitable for rotational speed monitoring thanks to the high operating frequency Simultaneous availability of both make and break switching functions with maximum connection flexibility to the control unit Integrated diagnostic function with flashing LED in the event of a short circuit or overload 14/03/2019 ICS08, ICB12, ICB18 and ICB30 4-wire DC DS EN Carlo Gavazzi Automation S.p.A. 1ICS08, ICB12, ICB18 and ICB30 4-wire DC References Order code IC A Enter the code, replacing the symbol with the selected option (e.g.: ICB12S30F04NAM1).
