Inductive Sensors

Rugged proximity sensors that detect metal targets through an electromagnetic field; correct selection is tied to the application's numerical limits.

Dedicated Technical Content

How should Inductive Sensors be evaluated?

For Inductive Sensors, three inputs form one selection decision: Metal type and effective sensing distance; Flush mounting and housing size; and Switching frequency, output and protection. Mounting-clearance definition is prepared after Flush mounting and housing size for Gear-tooth and metal-part counting has been compared with the mechanical and electrical interfaces viewed together.

When Metal type and effective sensing distance and Switching frequency, output and protection do not agree for Machine end-position detection with the mechanical and electrical interfaces viewed together, an installed part number is not treated as a direct equivalent.

Metal type and effective sensing distance, Flush mounting and housing size and Switching frequency, output and protection are compared with the mechanical and electrical interfaces viewed together through Machine end-position detection, Gear-tooth and metal-part counting and Tool and fixture verification respectively.

Technical Selection Criteria

What to verify for Inductive Sensors

Metal type and effective sensing distance, Flush mounting and housing size and Switching frequency, output and protection are compared with the mechanical and electrical interfaces viewed together through Machine end-position detection, Gear-tooth and metal-part counting and Tool and fixture verification respectively.

01

Metal type and effective sensing distance

For Machine end-position detection, Metal type and effective sensing distance is verified with the mechanical and electrical interfaces viewed together; the result is carried into Target-material distance check.

02

Flush mounting and housing size

For Gear-tooth and metal-part counting, Flush mounting and housing size is verified with the mechanical and electrical interfaces viewed together; the result is carried into Mounting-clearance definition.

03

Switching frequency, output and protection

For Tool and fixture verification, Switching frequency, output and protection is verified with the mechanical and electrical interfaces viewed together; the result is carried into Output and connector match.
