ifm efector K=1 inductive sensors

Monday, 25 April, 2016 | Supplied by: ifm efector pty ltd


Inductive sensors with a correction factor K=1 have been developed by ifm efector. Particularly developed for factory automation, the sensors provide a uniform sensing range for the detection of all metals. The compact dimensions of the devices allow use in the smallest of spaces, while electromagnetic field immune sensor technology prevents incorrect switching.

The sensors are suitable for the detection of aluminium where conventional sensors show a considerably reduced sensing range, while at the same time featuring a constant sensing range on all other kinds of metals. Fast changing switching states are precisely monitored by high switching frequencies.

The inductive sensors are immune to magnetic fields and are claimed to be able to operate with absolute reliability even next to electric brakes. The wide operating temperature range of -40 to 85°C allows universal use and the high protection rating IP68/IP69K ensures constant reliability.
