Set your sights on meeting your production goals by using this proximity sensor from Turck. It's an inductive type that's designed for detecting the presence of metals in your system. The brass housing is resistant to impact and wear, so it won't crack under pressure. An IP67 rating means that the sensor is protected against dust and submersion in 1m of water for up to 30 minutes, so it's just the thing for use in harsh environments.

• Detection range of 4mm for sensing objects in tight spaces
• Standard M12 connector for easy installation
• Wide operating temperature range between -25°C and +70°C for use in extreme environments

• Recycling plants
• Automotive assembly
• Machine tooling

Yes, it's protected against short circuits and reverse polarity to minimise the risk of damage in the event of an electrical fault.

Inductive sensors emit an electromagnetic field and detect disruptions in that field due to the presence of metal objects. As there's no physical contact, there's minimal risk of wear.

Turck Banner Barrel Inductive Proximity Sensors

Inductive sensors are designed for contact-less and wear-free detection. They are the perfect solution for breweries, frozen food, dairies and packaging applications. Resistant to cleaning agents and disinfectants and exceed the protection classes IP68 & IP69K. These sensors are available as standard versions in chrome plated brass barrels or stainless steel housing with LCP front cap and double lip seal for heavy use or sudden changes in temperature. All inductive sensors of the new uprox+ generation operate with highest switching distances, feature an extended temperature range and are easily mounted.Turck inductive proximity sensors are manufactured with shielded coil, designated by “Bi” in the part number, and a non-shielded coil, designated by “Ni” in the part number.
