Inductive IO-Link sensors

April 2025 Sensors & Transducers

Turck Banner is expanding its sensor range with inductive measuring sensors with IO-Link and an analogue output for flush and non-flush mounting. Thanks to the integrated microprocessor, the BI11-CK40 and NI11-CK40 models offer significantly improved linearity and accuracy, including temperature compensation over a wide temperature range from -25 to 75°C. The devices are the only sensors of this type to have a standard adjustable 0 to 10 V voltage output and an additional switching output that can be freely parameterised via IO-Link, thus providing precise measurement data and extensive diagnostic functions for predictive maintenance.

The simple parameter transfer via IO-Link facilitates sensor replacement in the event of a fault, and minimises downtimes in production. With a long range of up to 25 mm, and a minimum linearity deviation of less than 1% for the flush version and less than 2,5% for the non-flush version, the robust IP67 sensors offer maximum precision and reliability in a wide range of applications, for example in the mechanical engineering, packaging, energy and automotive sectors. The proven rectangular CK40 design allows space-saving, flexible installation solutions that are easy to implement. The sensor head can be positioned easily in five directions using the tool supplied.
