Inductive & Capacitive Sensors: Precise Non-Contact Sensing Solutions

Our range of inductive and capacitive sensors provides reliable and versatile non-contact sensing solutions for a wide variety of industrial and automation applications. These sensors excel in detecting the presence or absence of objects without physical contact, offering superior durability and longevity compared to mechanical switches.

Inductive Sensors: Metal Detection Specialists

Inductive proximity sensors are designed to detect metallic objects. They operate by generating a high-frequency electromagnetic field. When a metallic object enters this field, it disrupts the field, triggering the sensor's output.

Key Features of our Inductive Sensors:

• High Sensitivity: Detect even small metallic objects with precise accuracy.
• Robust Construction: Built to withstand harsh industrial environments, including dust, moisture, and vibration.
• Various Sensing Ranges: Available in a wide range of sensing distances to suit different applications.
• Fast Response Time: Provide quick and reliable detection for high-speed applications.
• Easy Installation: Simple mounting options for seamless integration into existing systems.
• Multiple Output Types: Options including NO (Normally Open), NC (Normally Closed), and PNP/NPN configurations.
• Durable Housings: Choose from various materials like stainless steel, plastic, and others to withstand specific environmental conditions.
• IP Ratings: High IP ratings for protection against ingress of dust and water, ensuring reliable operation in demanding environments.

Capacitive Sensors: Versatile Material Detection

Capacitive proximity sensors detect the presence of virtually any material, including metals, non-metals, liquids, and powders. They operate by measuring changes in capacitance caused by the proximity of an object to the sensor's sensing face.

Key Features of our Capacitive Sensors:

• Multi-Material Detection: Detect a wide range of materials beyond just metals.
• Adjustable Sensitivity: Easily fine-tune the sensor's sensitivity to optimize performance for specific applications.
• Non-Contact Sensing: Eliminates wear and tear associated with mechanical switches.
• Long Life Expectancy: High reliability and extended operational lifespan.
• Various Sensing Ranges & Shapes: Different sensing distances and sensor shapes are available to accommodate various application needs. (e.g., cylindrical, rectangular)
• Immune to Ambient Light: Unaffected by changes in ambient light conditions.
• Multiple Output Types: Similar to inductive sensors, various output types are available.
• Robust & Compact Designs: Designed for easy integration and reliable performance in challenging environments.
• IP Ratings: Various IP ratings are available to ensure protection against environmental factors.

Applications:

Both inductive and capacitive sensors find applications in diverse industries and processes, including:

• Automation: Robot control, conveyor belt monitoring, parts counting.
• Manufacturing: Process control, quality assurance, presence detection.
• Packaging: Level sensing, object detection.
• Automotive: Engine management, safety systems.
• Food & Beverage: Level detection, contamination detection.
