The DC stainless steel inductive sensor line, available from Turck , includes 8, 12, 18 and 30 mm barrel diameters with 1.5 to 10 mm achievable sensing distances. The inductive sensors feature one-piece construction and IP 68 and IP 68K ratings, making them particularly suitable for food and beverage industry applications requiring frequent washdowns.
Select steel inductive sensors are available with Turck’s proprietary WeldGuard protective sensing face material, which resists weld slag build-up and abrasion often found in robotic welding applications, including those in the automotive industry. The steel inductive sensors come equipped with an M12 quick disconnect connection or with potted-in 2 m cable for ease of installation on the plant floor.
