BALLUFF Proximity Switch Reference Data

For this purpose, Baruff provides you with inductive sensors that can cover almost all application areas and come in a variety of styles: from standard sensors to sensors with larger sensing distances, sanitary sensors, high-voltage resistant sensors, explosion-proof sensors, Factor 1 (sensors with an attenuation coefficient of 1), which are all metal sensors. In addition, these sensors have ceramic or PTFE coatings to ensure that welding spatter cannot adhere.

The sensor principle is reliable and suitable for high-speed objects

Induction ring sensors of different sizes can be installed universally

Our inductive position sensor can still leave a deep impression in narrow installation conditions: the inductive position sensor can be integrated, has accuracy, and can perform non-contact position measurement on metal objects, so there is no wear and tear. They reliably detect linear measurement paths through a simple target. A simple component of a machine, such as a turntable, can serve as a target. Depending on the model, the measured values can be output through IO Link or analog output signals.

The technical parameters and mechanical principles of the measurement system are specially developed to meet the growing requirements of the industrial field. In addition, BIR also includes internal status monitoring sensors, making it a part of the Baruff Intelligent Automation and Manufacturing System (SAMS). It is ready for IIoT and the future

The application areas of sensors are monitoring and driving spindles and clamping devices.

This type of switch is sometimes called an inductive proximity switch. It uses conductive objects to generate eddy currents inside the object when approaching the proximity switch that can generate an electromagnetic field. This eddy current reacts with the proximity switch, causing changes in the internal circuit parameters of the switch, thereby identifying the presence or absence of conductive objects moving closer and controlling the on or off of the switch. The object that this proximity switch can detect must be a conductive material.

The oscillator is composed of an inductor, a capacitor, and a transistor, and generates an alternating magnetic field. When a metal object approaches this magnetic field, eddy currents are generated inside the metal object, causing the oscillation to stop. This change is amplified by the back pole and converted into a transistor switch signal output.

Our Entry Line series inductive sensors are designed specifically for large-scale standard applications. Therefore, large-scale ordering can be effectively carried out. The environmentally friendly multiple packaging of 25 pcs per box does not require time-consuming unpacking of individual sensors.
