Inductive analog sensors

October 2004 Sensors & Transducers

Turck is offering an expanded line of inductive analog sensors with a variety of new housing styles and functions. Historically, Turck has been very successful with inductive analog sensors. Based on this success and to meet the latest market needs, Turck has expanded its line of inductive sensors to offer an extensive and technically advanced selection. Turck maintained a special regard to the following three features:

1. Extended sensing range

The major cylindrical styles (12 mm, 18 mm, 30 mm) are now available with an extended linear sensing range that is up to 100% longer. This series is called analog+. With this addition, Turck now believes that it offers the longest sensing range in the market.

2. Technical improvements

The repeatability of all styles has been improved and is now specified at less than 1%. The temperature drift can be determined exactly in the respective temperature range of the application. The temperature drift is now specified at 0,06% per °C.

3. Housing style additions

Turck has added self-contained 6,5 mm and 8 mm diameter sensors to the product line. 4 and 5 mm styles with remote amplifiers have been developed. In addition to the cylindrical sensors mentioned above, Turck has recently expanded its rectangular Q-pak line of sensors with sensing ranges up to 40 mm. With this complete product family, Turck is now able to meet a large range of analog applications.
