Inductive Proximity Sensors

Inductive Proximity Sensors are used for non-contact metal sensing. Being contactless sensors these can be used for position sensing, speed measurement, counting, etc. They can be used in extreme conditions, such as oily, dusty, corrosive environment. Their application ranges from automobile industries to steel industries, from CNC/NC machines to material handling equipments, process automation, conveyor systems, packaging machines.

DC Type (3 Wire Version)

Inductive proximity sensors can be used for position sensing, Speed measurement, Counting & in condition such as oily, dusty, corrosive enviroment. Their applications are in Automobile, Steel Industries, CNC/NC machines, Conveyor systems, packaging machines etc. These 3 wire DC sensors are with NPN or PNP transistorised output and the load is connected in parallel.

DC Type (2 Wire Version)

These Sensors are designed to work as solid state DC limit switches. The Sensors are connected directly in series with the load and have a bridge rectifier so they are not polarity conscious. The circuit design is such that, when in off state, it allows very low current to flow through the load. However, the output load (such as relay) should be chosen, considering the voltage drop across the switch in the ON State. These sensors find wide application in electric control circuits and PLC’s.

Ac Type (2 Wire Version)

These Sensors are designed to provide better alternative to conventional limit Switches / micro switches. These are epoxy potted similar to other types of sensors to render IP67 protection and hence are suitable even in underwater applications. The load (AC Contactor / AC relay / Solenoid Coil) is to be connected in series with the switch.

INDUCTIVE SENSORS (BLOCK TYPE)

These are constructed in Rectangular, T Type , Slot type Pentagonal and Block type sensors. The technical specification are similar to standard cylindrical sesors and are available in 3 wire DC & 2 wire AC types.
