New and expanded line of ring sensors

June 2004 Sensors & Transducers

Turck is offering a new expanded line of inductive ring sensors with higher sensitivity, new mounting features, accessories, housing styles and CE approval. The Q style (rectangular) family has grown with the addition of the Q80 (114 x 80 x 40 mm) housing. The Q80 style is available with a 50 or 65 mm ring diameter. Just like the smaller ring style sensors, the Q80 is equipped with a static output.

The S32 (175 x 100 x 32 mm) large ring sensors have been technically improved and now provide adjustable sensitivity. Their modular construction enables both combined and remote installation of the rings and amplifiers. With these recent improvements, the sensors now meet CE requirements. Based on modifications to the W30 (70 x 35 x 30 mm) mid-size ring sensor, Turck now offers the W30S housing with enhancements to the existing design. The quick disconnect can be mounted on top of the housing instead of the side. This enhancement allows the cable to be directly parallel to a tube carrying the sensing target. Accessories for mounting the ring sensor directly onto a pipe or tube are also offered from Turck.

The Q style ring sensors and accessories are space saving and easy to mount. With the additional styles and enhancements to the existing ring sensors, Turck is able to meet all kinds of application requirements and continue to offer the broadest sensing product line in the industry. Turck is a leading supplier of advanced control solutions to help manufacturers improve their automated processes.
