Baumer Electric IFRM-08P13G1 Switch

Baumer's IFRM-08P13G1/S35L inductive proximity switch is an 8 mm cylindrical sensor with a 6 mm nominal sensing distance and a PNP normally-open output, designed for 12–30 VDC operation. The unit uses an M8 connection and, at 46 mm in length, combines a stainless-steel housing with a PBT sensing face to deliver robust performance in harsh environments, rated IP67 for protection against dust and water ingress. Electrical specs include a supply range of 12–30 VDC, a current draw up to 18 mA, an output current rating of less than 200 mA, and a voltage drop under 2 VDC; the switch operates with a PNP NO configuration and includes short-circuit and reverse-polarity protections. The device features three indicator LEDs to convey status, and the “S35L” variant signifies the M8 connection version with a 3-point LED configuration. Ambient operating temperature is 0 to +60 °C, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications where non-contact metal sensing is required. In short, IFRM-08P13G1/S35L provides a compact, rugged, 12–30 VDC inductive switch solution with clear visual feedback and reliable protection features for automated equipment, conveyors, and small-assembly line setups requiring precise, energy-efficient metal detection.
