Washdown sensor shows its metal
Sensors feature longer sensing ranges for detecting all metals, including nonferrous metals such as stainless steel, at the same rated distance.
Turck's line of uprox+ Factor 1 sensors now include IP69K-rated washdown versions with temperature ratings from -40 to +100C These sensors are designed to be exceptionally resilient to the high-pressure cleaning agents often found in the food and beverage and pharmaceutical industries
The sensors incorporate durable 316 stainless steel construction and a liquid crystal polymer front cap that aids in resisting moisture ingress.
They also consist of a polypropylene cable jacket that stands up to harsh chemicals and extreme temperatures.
The uprox+ sensors feature longer sensing ranges for detecting all metals, including nonferrous metals such as stainless steel, at the same rated distance.
This is especially useful in applications like food and beverage where the targets are often made from stainless steel.
