Inductive sensors are non-contact proximity sensors that detect ferrous targets, ideally ones made of mild steel thicker than one millimeter. They consist of four major components: a ferrite core ...

TURCK announces their Q-track™ family of linear position sensors has been expanded to include the newest QR14 and the Q17 models. Measuring just 14 mm and 17 mm in height, the compact, non-contact ...

Inductive position sensors, Smith said, are simpler, cheaper, lighter, and better able to withstand extreme temperatures than what they are replacing. “Also, because they are non-contact, the circuit ...

Distance measuring sensors fit tight spaces. The IWFM 08 inductive sensor can be easily integrated into any design due to its compact outer dimensions of just 8 × 16 × 4.7 mm; a sturdy metal ...

There must be no chemical reaction between the sensor material and the sample. Use a sensor with a low cell constant (0.01 to 0.1 cm-1) for low conductivity measurements and a sensor with a higher ...

For detection of non-metal targets in such environments, capacitive sensors can be used. However, where ultimate precision and accuracy is required, that’s where eddy current sensors come in. These ...

The sensor straddles the wall of the 1.7-liter water tank, so no penetrations are needed. Inside the tanks is a track that guides a copper and PETG float that’s sealed with food-safe epoxy resin.

Inductive non-contact switching can eliminate this situation. Another typical application is door or window open/close detection. This requires a highly reliable indication of door or window state.

Renesas has invented a non-contact industrial rotary inductive position sensor that works up to 600,000rpm and has a propagation delay less than 2μs. This image is part one of the snippets of ...

TURCK Q-track™ linear position sensor family has been expanded to include the newest QR14 and the Q17 models. Measuring just 14 mm and 17 mm in height, the compact, non-contact inductive sensors ...
