Fail-safe inductive sensors for industrial and mobile applications

Robust safety

Fail-safe sensors protect both man and machine. To date, ifm is the only supplier to market fail-safe inductive sensors in a robust full-metal housing in order to ensure maximum reliability even under extreme conditions. The full-metal housing offers optimum protection against permanent moisture. In addition, the sensors are well secured against shock and vibration loads that are particularly prevalent in mobile machines. Due to the extended temperature range of -40 to 85 °C, they can be used in freezing cold and summer heat, indoors and outdoors on vehicles and machines.

Applications

Typical applications for fail-safe sensors can be service lids or manholes, where they ensure that the machine cannot start until the lid is closed. On mobile machines such as mobile cranes or cherry pickers, safety sensors often monitor the outriggers that are extended to prevent the vehicle from tipping over.

Maximum safety: full-metal inductive sensor for extreme conditions

The full-metal inductive sensors have been developed to ensure maximum reliability and robustness in demanding environments. As a safety sensor, it offers protection and safety in critical applications. Thanks to its stainless steel sleeve, the sensor is extremely resistant and can withstand even the most adverse environmental conditions. Whether extreme temperatures, intensive cleaning processes or use in severe industrial environments - the safe full-metal sensor is the right choice.
