Proximity Sensors

Inductive sensors are electronic sensors that function on induction principle. The signal at the active end of the edge of the device opens or closes the circuit at the end, if a metal object or a metal surface are detected into the working distance (Sn). The sensor emits an electromagnetic or electrostatic field and detects any changes in it or in the feed back signal without physical contact with the scanned item. Inductive sensors are suitable for application in various spheres of industry and automatic production such as moving elements control and monitoring, tracking the number of products and parts, speed and round detection, level regulation, etc. They are used for remote monitoring of machine's vibrations and surveillance of active elements such as shafts, bearings and bushings.
