Allen Bradley 871TM series tubular stainless steel inductive sensors are ideal for harsh or extremely demanding environments. These sensors resist impact, abrasion and corrosion, to keep things moving where ordinary sensors grind to a halt. The 871TM series features full mechanical seals at all barrel openings and full epoxy encapsulation for optimal performance in the toughest environments. IO-Link enabled sensors offer advanced features and diagnostics including Automatic Device Configuration, multiple profiles, trending, descriptive tags, and device-specific parameters

IO-Link communication

Monitor the presence of ferrous and non-ferrous metal objects using this proximity sensor from Rockwell Automation's Allen Bradley range. As it's an inductive sensor, it works by generating an electromagnetic field that reacts to the presence of metals within a set detection range. This means that it doesn't need to make physical contact with the target, reducing the risk of mechanical wear and ensuring long-lasting performance. For enhanced ease of use, the sensor comes with an IO-Link interface that lets you connect it to your control system for data processing.
