IN300129, IPF, inductive sensor, M30 × 70mm, Sn 15mm, PNP, connector M12

IN300129 – IPF inductive sensor

IN300129 IPF is an inductive sensor designed for non-contact detection of the position and presence of metal objects. This variant has: design M30, overall length 70 mm, rated sensing distance 15 mm, PNP output, connection: connector M12.

Key features

• Sensing distance 15 mm – rated value according to the manufacturer's catalogue data.
• PNP output – electrical design of this variant.
• Non-flush mounting – design of the active face according to the manufacturer.
• Connection: Connector M12 – electrical connection type of this variant.
• Degree of protection IP67 – degree of protection stated in the catalogue data.

How an inductive sensor works

The active face of the sensor generates an electromagnetic field. When a metal object approaches it, the resulting eddy currents change the state of the oscillator and the electronics evaluate this change at the output. Detection takes place without mechanical contact between the sensor and the target.

Technical specifications IN300129

Electrical connection IN300129

IN300129 uses the connection connector M12. Before connecting, compare the actual wiring with the diagram in the manufacturer's datasheet; pin and wire colour assignments should not be derived from the connector type alone.

Mounting IN300129

The active face is designed for non-flush mounting. Free space must remain around the face according to the manufacturer's installation drawing, otherwise surrounding metal may affect the range.

Typical applications IN300129

• detecting the presence of a metal part
• checking the end position of a metal part
• non-contact counting of metal objects

How to choose the right variant

• Sensing distance 15 mm: this is the rated catalogue value. When designing, take into account the material and size of the target as well as the mounting conditions.
• Non-flush version: check that the installation method matches the manufacturer's installation drawing.
• PNP output: must match the input type of the control system.
• Connection: Connector M12: the mating connector or cable must match the data in the datasheet.
• Degree of protection IP67: assess together with the specific environmental conditions and the connection method.
