Fail-safe inductive sensor directly detects metal.
 
 

 
Detection without magnetic target or coded actuator.
  • Suitable for operator and machine safety.
  • Reliable end position monitoring on moving machine parts.
  • Connection of the sensors to safety PLCs, bus systems and logic modules possible.
  • Increased machine uptime and safety.
  • Certified to IEC 62061 SILcl2, complies with IEC 61508 SIL2.

Requirement profiles for the fail-safe sensor:
Reliable positioning on rotary indexing tables and machine tools. Reliable triggering of slow travel or switching off in end positions for presses, gantry robots and actuators. Reliable area monitoring for robots. The fail-safe sensor increases the uptime and safety of your installation and can be connected to approved evaluation units. Costly maintenance can be dispensed with due to wearfree operation. Faults such as coil break are diagnosed and the sensor passes into the defined safe state. In case of a cross fault between the supply voltage and an output the fail-safe sensor can switch off the other output when there is a safety request.
