Magnetic sensor

Balluff sensor detects magnetic field interference, stops false triggering

September 28, 2020 By Mike Santora

weld-immune-magnetic-field-sensor

Balluff’s latest magnetic field sensor was designed specifically to withstand the magnetic fields of weld applications. The BMF 415 weld-immune magnetic field sensor can detect interference of magnetic fields caused by high weld currents and stop the sensor from false triggering by using a higher level of circuitry and filtration. It’s IP67 rating and protective […]
