World’s Smallest Metal Face “Remote Amplifier” Inductive Proximity Sensors

TWINSBURG, OH – Pepperl+Fuchs has expanded its family of short-barrel Pile Driver inductive proximity sensors by adding a new Remote Amplifier version. Just 23mm in length, these shielded sensors are fully flush mountable and are ideally suited for space restricted applications in harsh environments such as those found in the welding and metal forming industries, among others.

These sensors can effectively operate in temperatures ranging from –25°C to 70°C. They feature an 8mm diameter housing, offer a nominal sensing range of 1.5mm and can be wired either sinking or sourcing. Additionally, they come standard with a 100% stainless steel sensing face and barrel, are Black Armor coated for weld spatter resistance, and offer a Micro-Quick disconnect method of connection.

Pepperl+Fuchs is a world leader in the design, manufacture and application of high quality factory and process automation products and services. Pepperl+Fuchs pioneered the development of proximity sensors 45 years ago, and has set the standard for innovation and quality ever since.
