Wenglor I03 and I04 series inductive sensors

Click2Contact

The Wenglor I03 series inductive sensors have a diameter of just 3 mm (D3) and a smooth housing, while the I04 series has an external thread with a total diameter of 4 mm (M4). With both series, the housing is 22 mm long. The almost invisible miniature sensors are said to detect precise switching signals in places where virtually no installation space is available. They also offer increased switching distances of up to 1 mm, a robust PUR cable connection (two metres), a high IP67 degree of protection and a broad operating temperature range of -25 to +70°C.

Optional PNP/NPN and NO/NC variants also enable convenient integration with existing systems. A LED adjustment aid shows the sensor status clearly over long distances.

Due to their small size and low weight, the inductive sensors are suitable for end position detection of gripper systems in the production of wires and cables, for example. In addition, they can also be flush-mounted in robot grippers in the automotive industry for detecting the gripper opening and closing. The small sensors also offer support in the wood industry in pallet nailing machines. The continuous supply of nail pins can be monitored directly in the dispenser unit. The monitoring of drive shafts in chain conveyor systems in the packaging industry is also a potential application of these sensors.
