X-Series Pile Driver Extended Range Inductive Sensors are available in 12mm, 18mm and 30mm diameters to deliver sensing ranges of 5mm, 10mm or 15mm.
That is up to 2.5 times longer range than traditional inductive
sensors, says the vendor, while the sensors’ 100% stainless steel
housings deliver durability more than 20 times that of competitive
brass and plastic housings. Black Armor coated weld-immune models are
also available. “In the most demanding application environments, it’s
good to withstand a punishing target impact, but reducing or altogether
avoiding impacts is obviously better, and this has led to the
popularity of many of today’s ‘extended range’ sensors,” says Product
Manager Marcel Ulrich. “But until now, sensor users have been faced
with choosing between sensing distance or sensor durability. The
X-Series Pile Driver changes that by delivering both industry-leading
durability and sensing range.” X-Series Pile Drivers can detect all
metals and are IP69k-rated to withstand high-pressure washdown cleaning.Pepperl+Fuchs Inc.www.pepperl-fuchs.com330.486.0001
