Pepperl+Fuchs launches measuring inductive distance sensors with IO-Link

Pepperl+Fuchs, one of the leading suppliers in this industry, is launching measuring inductive distance sensors featuring IO-Link interface. The devices are suitable for Industry 4.0 applications and offer not only high-precision measurement capabilities, but also comprehensive information for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance. 

The sensors can detect objects at a speed of up to 3 m/sec and deliver precise measurement data with a repeat accuracy of 5%. Their measuring range is up to 30 mm. The sensors determine the speed and acceleration of the damping element. Two independent switching windows and defined limit values can be individually parameterised. Adjustable filters allow the measurement speed and accuracy to be adjusted. The high switching frequency of up to 1300 Hz enables very short throughput times, thereby helping to increase productivity. 

Additional data, including temperature and operating times and counters, is transmitted via the IO-Link interface. The monitoring of speed and acceleration and the historical values of these variables allow the detailed analysis of sub-processes such as opening/closing for valves and acceleration/braking for absorbing elements. This monitoring of the machine status facilitates predictive maintenance and prevents unplanned downtimes. Devices with analog outputs are also available for classic applications.
