Factor 1 and Weld-Field Immunity in a Single Sensor from Balluff
Newest Additions to Balluff Inductive Portfolio Designed for Tough Environments
FLORENCE, Ky., June 25, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The latest additions to Balluff's inductive sensor portfolio deliver the benefits of Factor 1 and weld-field immunity.
The high-precision sensors reliably detect ferrous and non-ferrous metals including steel, aluminum or brass at an identical switching distance, unlike typical inductive sensors which have a reduced range for non-ferrous metals. This makes it possible to detect objects of different materials in a single application.
Additionally, the sensors are weld-field immune, meaning they aren't affected by even strong electromagnetic fields. This, combined with their extended temperature range (from -40°C / -25°C to 70°C / 85°C depending on the sensor), ensure fault-free processing, even in tough environments. PTFE coated versions are available for applications in welding environments.
They come in M12 and M18 sizes and for flush and non-flush installation.
