The Inspector's rugged IP67-protected metal housing ensures it can withstand harsh industrial and production line environments, for quality assurance inspection in any location or orientation.
Sick offer a broad range of inductive sensors including inductive proximity, magnetic proximity and magnetic cylinder sensors, with a choice of connectors and installation methods.
The Erwin Sick range has now been extended with the introduction of the new Capacitive Proximity series.
These sensors have a high EMC immunity towards ESD, Burst, communication interference and conducted noise.
Therefore, they are unaffected by the proximity of computers, radios, mobile phones, walkie-talkies, contactors and solenoids.
The adjustability and extended sensing range of the series add to their versatility, together with the availability of flush and non-flush models and plug or cable versions.
Their use has already been proven within application areas such as the Packaging and Food industries, and Paper, Plastic and Wood production.
