In contrast to other safety proximity sensors, SIL 2/PL d inductive safety sensors enable reliable detection without dead band. Discover the newly developed sensor series that improves safety of …

They can switch between two defined states and thus control actuators such as valves, flaps, signal lights, etc. Inductive proximity sensors can be connected to digital inputs of programmable logic …

The first industrial-grade inductive proximity sensor was developed and launched on the market in 1958 by Walter Pepperl and Wilfried Gehl. At the time, the development was driven by neighboring BASF.

Since the reduction factor for inductive proximity switches depends upon the housing and shielding material, this factor vary from type to type. Please use the value in the respective data sheet.

Unlike a mechanical switch, a two-wire sensor as an active component requires voltage and current at all times. This means that even when closed, a non-negligible voltage, missing from the connected …

The switching element function determines whether a proximity sensor closes or opens the output when the object is detected, or whether this can be freely selected depending on the intended purpose.
