Inductive Proximity Sensors

MRK Engineers offers Inductive Proximity Sensors that provide an excellent means for detecting the presence of a wide range of metallic targets. This detection is accomplished without contacting the target and is mechanically wear free. In principle, and inductive proximity switch is comprised of a high frequency oscillator circuit followed by a level detector and a post amplification signal circuit and drives a buffered solid state output. In effect, when a metallic object is brought within the effective range of the emitted filed of the oscillator. This amplitude shift is converted to a digital signal by the level detection, (i.e., a Schmitt trigger) which drives a buffer stage when it is turned to its format state. These inductive proximity sensors are available in DC as well as AC, with various sizes from M8-M80, with various configurations and sensing distance. Inductive micro box sensor, slot sensor and any other types of sensor can be supplied as per the specific requirement.
