Two-wire sensors save on wiring costs
Two-wire DC sensors from Contrinex reduce the amount of cable and number of connection points required in machine design by 33% compared with conventional three-wire products.
News from Contrinex UK (20 August 2008)
Feedback sensors handle high temperatures
Failures in high-temperature processes are particularly expensive and time consuming because long delays often occur as systems are required to cool before failed sensors can be replaced.
News from Contrinex UK (18 July 2008)
Sensors tolerate welding conditions
Contrinex welding sensors are sealed to IP67, Teflon-coated to withstand weld spatter and are electrically double-insulated to resist electromagnetic interference.
News from Contrinex UK (19 June 2008)
Photoelectric sensors filter out interference
The precision background suppression can be adjusted in increments as small as 15mm and, because the sensors have a tiny blind zone, targets can be sensed down to 1mm from the lens.
News from Contrinex UK (22 May 2008)
Proximity sensors lower the costs of detection
S5050 photoelectric proximity switches are available in diffuse, retro-reflective (reflex) and through-beam versions.
News from Contrinex UK (24 April 2008)
Laser sensors spot small objects
M18 Contrinex laser sensors use a new generation of low-cost, precision diffuse lasers in which the beam spot can be reduced to just 0.2mm diameter using an adjustable iris.
News from Contrinex UK (26 March 2008)
Tiny sensor finds smaller targets
Miniature diffuse fibre optic sensor has a tip diameter of only 0.5mm, making it ideal for detecting extremely small targets or features.
News from Contrinex UK (28 February 2008)
Distribution system slashes installation time
Contrinex distribution boxes provide interconnection between sensors and control units by means of a range of quick-lock cable connectors and different sized distribution boxes.
News from Contrinex UK ( 6 February 2008)
M12 format provides new sensing options
Condet sensor technology produces a sensing distance three times that of conventional sensors of a similar size that is stable over its full temperature range from -25C to +70C.
News from Contrinex UK (10 January 2008)
Ultrasonic sensors have clear advantages
Because ultrasonic sensors use sound waves to sense the position of the target and are unaffected by the degree of opaqueness of the container they are ideal to detect the clearest of targets.
News from Contrinex UK (30 November 2007)
Sensors improve reliability for aluminium producer
User application article Series 700 sensors can withstand extreme impact, high shock levels and are resistant to virtually any chemical stress.
News from Contrinex UK ( 9 November 2007)
Fibre optic sensor counts small components
Contrinex' LFP-1011-020 fibre optic sensor has a beam spread of 28mm that will detect objects in any position across the broad area of light transmission.
News from Contrinex UK ( 4 October 2007)
Sensor solves speaker problem
User application article A Contrinex Sensor DW-AD-403-C5 was chosen to check that a connector terminal had been correctly positioned and moulded into each speaker housing.
News from Contrinex UK ( 6 September 2007)
Laser sensor operates in harsh environments
Contrinex' new M12 sensor is immune to interference from other light sources, resistant to high shock levels and protected against the effects of electro-magnetic radiation.
News from Contrinex UK (10 August 2007)
Sensors improve conveyor control
Contrinex right angle sensors are designed to be flush mounted on to the conveyor side looking across the belt or rollers, resulting in a slim profile that is unlikely to be struck and damaged.
News from Contrinex UK (13 July 2007)
Miniature sensors handle 20bar
Contrinex E series miniature sensors can be embedded in pressurised systems to detect moving elements or targets.
News from Contrinex UK ( 6 June 2007)
Tiny M8 inductive sensor released
Contrinex' new M8 inductive sensor is packaged into a housing only 16mm long.
News from Contrinex UK (18 May 2007)
Sensors allow development of biometric security
User application article Clarke Instruments' 492 series turnstile uses an Aurora biometrics facial recognition system to hold a user in an entrapment zone within the turnstile until cleared.
News from Contrinex UK (13 April 2007)
Sensors offer long detection distance
Contrinex sensors have a long sensing range with a parallel beam that allows accurate and reliable detection of objects through small holes and gaps.
News from Contrinex UK ( 7 March 2007)
Fibre optic sensor is on the level
Innovative fibre optic sensor can detect liquid levels remotely and accurately.
