I. Industrial Sensors
Our sensors are the eyes and ears of your automated systems, providing real-time data for informed decision-making and precise control.
- Proximity Sensors:
- Inductive: Non-contact detection of metallic objects; ideal for position sensing, counting, and speed detection in dirty environments.
- Capacitive: Detects both metallic and non-metallic objects (liquids, powders, granules) through various materials; perfect for level sensing and material detection.
- Photoelectric: Utilizes light (thru-beam, retro-reflective, diffuse) to detect objects across varying distances and materials, including transparent items.
- Ultrasonic: Measures distance to objects using sound waves, unaffected by color, transparency, or surface texture; excellent for level control and presence detection.
- Temperature Sensors:
- RTD (Pt100, Pt1000): High-precision resistance temperature detectors for accurate temperature measurement in processes, machinery, and HVAC.
- Thermocouple (Type K, J, T): Robust and fast-response temperature sensing for high-temperature applications.
- Infrared (Non-Contact): Measures surface temperature without physical contact, ideal for moving objects or hazardous environments.
- Pressure Sensors:
- Relative/Gauge, Absolute, Differential: Monitors pressure in liquids and gases, crucial for process control, hydraulic/pneumatic systems, and leak detection.
- Pressure Transmitters: Convert pressure readings into standardized electrical signals (4-20mA, 0-10V) for PLC/DCS integration.
- Level Sensors:
- Continuous: Provides constant level monitoring using guided wave radar, ultrasonic, or hydrostatic principles.
- Point: Detects when a specific level is reached using vibrating fork, float, or capacitive technologies.
- Flow Sensors: Monitors the flow rate of liquids, gases, and steam in pipelines, essential for process optimization and consumption tracking.
- Position & Displacement Sensors:
- Linear Position: Measures linear travel using LVDT, potentiometric, or magnetostrictive principles.
- Rotary Encoders (Incremental/Absolute): Provides precise rotational position, speed, and direction feedback for motors, robotics, and indexing tables.
- Force & Strain Sensors (Load Cells): Measures weight, tension, and compression, vital for weighing systems, material testing, and overload protection.
- Humidity & Gas Sensors: Environmental monitoring for critical atmosphere control.
- Vision Sensors: Basic object detection, inspection, and presence/absence verification using integrated cameras.
