The NI 40U Series of inductive proximity sensors from Turck Banner that features Uprox.

Want a contactless way to pick out metal objects in your automated system? This inductive proximity sensor from Turck works a treat. It uses an electromagnetic field to detect ferrous items interfering with smooth industrial operations. The unit's fibreglass-filled plastic body withstands chemical damage, so it's just the thing for hygiene-critical settings. It's heat resistant and performs without a hitch in temperatures between -30°C and +85°C. For convenient troubleshooting, corner LEDs show the device's operational status. You also get a clear view of the supply voltage and switching frequency, keeping you in the loop.

• Compact dimensions of 40 (L) x 114 (W) x 40mm (D) fit easily in space-tight areas
• Short-circuit protection helps prevent damage and service interruptions
• Supply voltage range between 10 and 65V DC for use in low-power setups

• Food and beverage processing
• Breweries
• Medical devices
• Automated assembly and packaging lines

Yes. Its IP68 rating indicates it's completely dust-tight and submersible in 1.5m water for up to 30 minutes without taking damage, so it's a reliable choice for tough environments.

Turck Banner 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 blocks 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.
