Request a QuoteBalluff inductive sensors cover the same non-contact metal detection duty as any proximity switch, with a range extending into factor 1 sensors that hold the same sensing distance on steel, stainless and aluminum alike.
That matters wherever target material varies through a machine, because a standard sensor's reduction factor on non-ferrous targets is a common source of intermittent faults after a product changeover.
Send the Balluff order code and we will quote availability, or give us the housing size, sensing range, target material and connection.
Applications
- Position and presence detection
- Mixed target material duty
- Weld-field and washdown environments
- Machine end-of-travel sensing
Balluff Inductive Sensors: Common Questions
It holds the same sensing distance regardless of the target metal. If your line runs mixed steel, stainless and aluminum parts, it removes a whole class of intermittent detection faults that look electrical and are not.
Yes. Send the order code as printed on the unit and we will quote availability and lead time.
Barrel size, sensing distance, flush or non-flush mounting, output type, voltage and connector.
