The introduction of a new twin-set sensor has augmented the line of BIM-UNT cylinder position sensors from TURCK. The twin-set sensor is comprised of two sensing heads connected by an over-moulded cable with the power and signal wires combined into an integral M12 connector on the sensor. Therefore, users require only one 4-wire cord-set to connect the two sensors to their PLCs. The twin-set sensor has high sensitivity and switching accuracy and is especially useful for detecting the extended and retracted position of the cylinder’s piston.
The unit’s high EMC immunity has speeded up response times
BIM-UNT sensors use magneto-resistive, board level technology that provides improved performance and housing. The sensor is equipped with a quick mount tab that helps seat it in the cylinder’s groove even before the screw is tightened, making single-handed mounting possible. The position of the screw has also been moved away from the cable-end, providing cable strain relief while ensuring the sensor remains in place if the cable is stressed. The packaging (total length 28 mm) ensures compactness with the active sensing faces located directly at the end of the sensor for reliable detection of piston rod end position on short-stroke cylinders.
The sensors are complemented by a broad range of accessories to aid installation in all T-grooved, dovetailed, round and tie-rod type pneumatic cylinders.
