The XS9 series of inductive proximity sensors have unique one-piece housing, machined from 303 stainless steel solid bars, the housing is extremely resistant to mechanical shocks and vibrations.This range of inductive proximity sensors are ideal for use in harsh industrial environments and well suited for applications such as metal processing machines, automotive and machining. The Factor 1 sensing feature of these sensors allows both ferrous and non-ferrous materials to be detected from the same distance.

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.

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.

Need a quick and easy way to detect metals? Add this proximity sensor from Telemecanique Sensors to your setup. It generates an alternating electromagnetic field that senses when a metal object enters its field of view. You can use it to determine the location of these items up to 40mm away, so it's ideal for preventing components in automated systems from going off track. As the unit's protected against sudden surges and reverse polarity, you can trust it to keep your system running smoothly.
