Telemecanique Inductive Proximity Sensors XS.

Telemecanique Inductive Proximity Sensors XS series allow you to detect all types of objects in all applications providing high detection performance for metal objects. This inductive sensor range with industry recognised high performing technology provide non-contact detection of material up to 20 mm. Inductive proximity sensors are available in flush and non-flush models (shielded and non-shielded).

OsiSense inductive proximity sensors are purely for detecting any metal objects up to 60 mm and include an oscillator with windings (an alternating magnetic field is generated in front) making up the sensing phase.

Styles Available.

Flush and Non-Flush (shielded and non-shielded).

Flat form.

Short and long body.

PNP and NPN versions (compatible with PLCs and controllers).

2 Wire DC, AC or AC/DC versions (available to be installed as a limit switch).

How do they work and where can I use them?

Inductive proximity sensors contain a coil and an oscillator, these create an electromagnetic field close to the sensing surface. When metal enters this field, a change occurs in the oscillating amplitude. This, in turn, changes the sensor output, showing you and equipment that metal has been sensed. Inductive proximity sensors are suitable for use most industries. Inductive sensors are unaffected by oil, dirt or surface finish and can be used in high vibration and high shock areas.

Applications.

Railway. Mobile equipment. Lists and escalators. Hoisting. Material handling, conveying, logistics.

Material working, machine tools. Packaging. Food and beverage. Robotics.

Telemecanique Sensors Proximity Sensor, Non-Flush Mounting Style, 2000Hz Maximum Switching Frequency - OsiSense XS Series - XS212B4PAL5

Want to keep a close eye on metal elements in your automated operating system? Choose this proximity sensor from Telemecanique Sensors. It contains an oscillator and a coil, which work together to generate an electromagnetic field that detects the presence of metal. This unit withstands exposure to oils and other industrial contaminants so it works effectively in challenging conditions. Thanks to a supply voltage range between 12 and 24V DC, it's ideal for low-power systems. The sensor's standardised M12 thread is highly compatible with standard kit, so set-up can be done and dusted in a jiffy.

• LED status display lets you monitor it at a glance
• Light 0.16kg weight puts minimal strain on your setup
• Mercury-free, so it's an environmentally friendly choice
• Performs reliably in temperatures between -20°C and +70°C

Applications

• Food and beverage industry
• Packaging and fulfilment facilities
• Factory automation

Is this device suitable for hygiene-critical applications?

Yes. This product has an IP69K rating, which means it's completely dust-tight and withstands high-pressure and high-temperature cleaning.

Is this assembly protected from reverse polarity?

Yes. This device has inbuilt protection from reverse polarity to safeguard against mishaps during installation.
