Sensor Detects Magnetic Targets behind Non-Ferromagnetic Walls
Detecting magnetic fields over distances up to 60 mm demonstrates the capability of recently released MFxM magnetic proximity switches from Baumer. With this sensing distance, the proximity switch can be used to detect a target located behind a wall of non-ferromagnetic metal such as stainless steel or aluminum. An important application is any place where […]
Capacitive Sensor for Liquid Level Detection
Detecting liquid levels in confined spaces in machines and facilities can pose problems. For these types of applications, Baumer developed its CFDK 25 capacitive sensor. The 52.4 x 25-mm flat housing design has a height of only 6 mm and has an available mounting frame. In addition to attachment with two screws, the frame allows […]
Diffuse Contrast Sensor Operates within 50 µs
Print mark detection in high-speed packaging and printing operations requires a rapid response sensor. Baumer’s FKDK 14 diffuse contrast sensor uses a white LED to precisely detect print marks within a response time of 50 µs. With the white light source, the photoelectric sensor can reliably detect print marks of all colors, even with slight […]
Sensors Detect Metal Targets In Extreme Heat & Cold
For sensing applications exposed to temperatures from -25 degrees C to +180 degrees C, Baumer has introduced the new IFRH Series of Inductive High Temperature Sensors, a family of two-part proximity switches available in M8, M12 and M18 designs with chromium nickel steel housings. Intended for flush-face installation, the IP67-rated IFRH sensors are designed to […]
Optical Sensor Accurately Detects Small, Fast-Moving Objects
For sensing applications involving distances as far as 200 mm, Baumer has introduced the new Long-Range ParCon, an analog optical line sensor that projects a continuous 24 mm wide beam of parallel light to a reflector, permitting extremely fast and reliable detection of moving parts as small as 0.5 mm. The sensor can also measure […]
Non-Contact Photoelectric Level Sensors
Southington, Conn. – For a range of liquid level detection applications in laboratory automation, medical devices, pharmaceutical packaging, beverage processing and other industries, Baumer has introduced the FFDK 16 Photoelectric Level Sensors, compact sensors designed to be mounted onto transparent or half-transparent standpipes from 3 to 13 mm in diameter. These easy to mount, non-contact […]
