Wenglor factor 1 inductive sensors

Click2Contact

The latest inductive sensors from Wenglor with correction factor 1 offer switching distances of up to 50 mm and a magnetic field resistance of 200 mT. Eight welding field-resistant models with four housing designs are available for the detection of ferrous and non-ferrous metals such as copper, cobalt, nickel and tin.

The sensors always have the same switching distance, even for different metals. A Teflon coating increases availability, especially when used in welding equipment where deposits resulting from welding spatter often have a negative effect on sensor performance. The extended temperature range of -40 to +80°C also permits use in harsh environments.

They are also resistant to DC and AC electromagnetic fields with strengths of up to 200 mT. High switching frequencies of 1500 to 4200 Hz permit use in high-speed applications. All four housing designs (M12, M18, M30 and 40 x 40 mm) are available as flush and non-flush mounting variants. The switching status LED is additionally equipped with an error indicator which is activated in the event of a short circuit or excessive temperature.
