CYLINDRICAL INDUCTIVE ATEX SENSORS IN METAL HOUSING

CYLINDRICAL INDUCTIVE ATEX SENSORS IN METAL HOUSING

Product catalog summary
General Features: The document describes cylindrical inductive ATEX sensors housed in metal, designed for detecting distance, displacements, vibrations, and metal composition. These sensors provide an output current that is inversely or directly proportional to the distance from a metal target, with the output also influenced by the target material.
Technical Specifications: The sensors operate with a supply voltage of 10 to 30 Vdc and an output current range of 4 to 20 mA. They are designed to function within a temperature range of -10°C to +60°C and have a maximum thermal drift of less than 10%. The sensors are protected against short-circuit, overload, and incorrect connections, and comply with IP67 protection standards.
Safety and Certification: The sensors are ATEX certified (II 1GD for zone 0;20) and meet various EN standards for electromagnetic compatibility and shock/vibration resistance. Safety parameters include a maximum voltage (Vi) of 30 V, maximum current (Ii) of 100 mA, maximum capacitance (Ci) of 5 nF, and maximum inductance (Li) of 750 μH.
Installation and Usage: The sensors are available in different sizes (M18 x 1 and M30 x 1.5) with specific tightening torques and are suitable for flush and non-flush mounting. They must be used with associated apparatus in hazardous areas as per instruction manuals.
Performance Characteristics: The sensors have a maximum switching frequency of 250 Hz and a repeat accuracy of 0.5%. The measurement range varies from 2 to 18 mm depending on the model.

CYLINDRICAL INDUCTIVE ATEX SENSORS IN METAL HOUSING-1

CYLINDRICAL INDUCTIVE ATEX SENSORS IN METAL HOUSING ANALOGUE LINEAR OUTPUT 4 ÷ 20 mA • ATEX certified II 1GD for zone 0;20 • Cable output • Housing B-2 General features: These inductive proximity sensors provide an output current inversely or directly proportional to the distance between sensing face and metal target. The output current is dependent also on the target material. So the proximity sensors in addition to determining distance, displacements, vibrations and distortions can be used to recognize the composition of metal and alloys. The current flowing through the load RL, generates a variation in voltage across the resistor for a suitable value of RL, it is possible to obtain voltage variations from one tenth to 20 V as can be seen in the tables.
