Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference: ICB12LF04PC

Part Overview

ICB12LF04PC is an inductive proximity sensor manufactured by Carlo Gavazzi Inc. The product features an unshielded nickel-plated brass body, M12 threaded cylindrical package, and implements a PNP-NC 3-wire output configuration. It supports a 4mm sensing distance, operates with a supply voltage range of 10V to 36V, and offers IP67 ingress protection. The product is obsolete, which necessitates the identification and evaluation of compatible substitute models to maintain system availability and ensure continued performance in applications requiring these specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for ICB12LF04PC are grouped based strictly on the defined key parameters: sensor type, sensing distance, output type, response frequency, shielding, material - body, voltage - supply, termination style, operating temperature range, ingress protection, indicator presence, and package/case format. Only those models matching these criteria are listed as direct substitutes for the obsolete sensor part in the same product category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ICB12LF04PC holds an obsolete product status, whereas ICB12L50F04PC is designated as active. Both parts are documented as ECCN EAR99 and feature Not Applicable for moisture sensitivity level. No additional compliance information is provided beyond REACH Status for ICB12L50F04PC (REACH Unaffected). Selection of active substitute models is recommended to ensure availability and continued compliance with indicated certifications and product status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What are the most critical parameters when selecting a substitute for ICB12LF04PC?
A: Sensor type, sensing distance, output type, response frequency, shielding, material - body, supply voltage, termination style, operating temperature, ingress protection, indicator type, and package/case must match the main part.

Q: Are there any packaging or mechanical differences to consider when replacing ICB12LF04PC?
A: Both main and substitute parts utilize a cylinder, threaded - M12 package and cable leads for termination, ensuring compatibility for mechanical fit.

Q: How does output type affect substitution compatibility?
A: The main part uses PNP-NC, 3-wire output; the substitute specifies PNP-NC, 4-wire. System wiring may require adaptation to accommodate this difference.

Q: Is product status relevant in choosing a substitute component?
A: Yes. ICB12LF04PC is obsolete; ICB12L50F04PC is active, making it suitable as a replacement in ongoing production or maintenance.

Q: Are the parts compliant with common international export and safety classifications?
A: Both parts are classified as ECCN EAR99, and specified substitute indicates REACH unaffected status. No further compliance data is provided.
