Sonar Proximity Switches SIMATIC PXS
From 2,5 cm to 10 m - They Hear Everything!
Our sonar proximity switches sense objects of varying materials, shapes, colors or consistencies with absolute precision, flexibility and reliability. The application potential is almost unlimited. Whether recording fill levels or heights, measuring distances or counting bottles, our switches recognize objects with a wide range of properties from a distance of 2,5 cm to 10 m, regardless whether they are liquid, solid, powdery or even transparent. Surface conditions are irrelevant as well - they can be rough or smooth, clean or dirty, wet or dry. Our proximity switches feature maximum ruggedness and resistance against dirt, vibration and extraneous light or sound.

Capacitive Proximity Switches SIMATIC PXC
Monitoring Fill Levels and More
Capacitive proximity switches also operate contactless and equally respond almost instinctively when conductive or non- conductive materials in solid, powdery or liquid states have to be measured. They are particularly convincing in monitoring fill levels through non-metallic materials such as plastic or glass, and in counting objects made of various substances.
|
|
|
Proxistor capacitives produce an electric field with which they detect electrically conducting or non-conducting materials, solids particles or liquids, without making contact. Target detection is not affected by colour. Almost all Proxistor capacitives feature adjustable sensitivity allowing them to be set-up to differentiate between materials or compensate for varying mounting conditions.
|
|
Capacitive proximity sensors react to metals and non-metals that exceed a specific capacitance on approaching the active surface.
The sensing distance with resprect to a specific material is greater the higher the dielectric constant.
The sensors are used to detect objects, for counting functions and for all types of level monitoring applications (liquids and solid materials.
|
|
|
Capacitive proximity switches are designed for non-contact and wear-free detection of metal (electrically conductive) and non-metal (electrically non-conductive) objects.

In all automated processes the use of sensors to provide information for the plc is of prime importance. Sensors supply the necessary signals on positions, end stops, levels or serve as pulse transmitters for counting jobs or for monitoring rotational speed. In industrial usage inductive and capacitive proximity switches are indispensable. As compared to mechanical switches they offer almost ideal conditions: non-contact, maintenance-free operation, high switching frequencies and switching accuracies as well as high protection against vibration, dust and humidity.
Inductive sensors detect all metals without contact, capacitive sensors detect nearly all solid and liquid media such as metal, glass, wood, plastic, water, oil, etc...
Both inductive and capacitive proximity switches are available in NAMUR versions. In conjunction with an NV0100/NV0200 amplifier the sensors can be used in zone 1 hazardous areas (the amplifier which contains Zener barriers as well as power supply and output must be mounted outside the hazardous area).

The capacitive sensors with extreme long sensing distance are based on the three-electrode measuring-principle. this measuring principle allows much larger sensing distances compared to the two-electrode principle of common capacitive sensors, up to 10-times the norm. Although one achieves essentially larger switching distances with these capacitive systems, the size of the sensors is small.
KXS-Systems are used for applications where the sensing distances of standard sensors are not sufficient.
A further feature is the Duplex-or Triplex-operation. With the corresponding evaluation unit it is possible to adjust 1, 2 or 3 switching points with only one sensor.

Capacitive sensors (KAS) react to metals and non-metals that exceed a specific capacitance on approaching the active surface. The sensing distance with respect to a specific material is greater the higher the dielectric constant. The sensors are used to detect objects, for counting functions and for all types of level monitoring applications in liquid materials (i.e. water, oil, acids, glue) and bulk materials (i.e. pouder, granulate, pellets).

In industrial processes where liquids, air or gases are used valves serve for dosing and control. There is a wide variety of valve types, butterfly or ball valves being the most common quarter-turn types.
In large plants these valves are seldom operated manually. Mechanical actuation is normally done by separate actuators. The valve position must be monitored electronically. This is necessary to give feedback to the controller when a certain position (e.g. "open" or "closed") is reached and to monitor the valves centrally from a control room.
Mechanical switches are still often used for position feedback on the actuator shaft. For other solutions several proximity switches are used together with a switching target for position detection. Disadvantage of these solutions: Mounting is mechanically complex. During switch mounting the signal wires can be reversed when they are connected in the top-mounted junction box. Where there are temperature fluctuations condensing humidity leads to corrosion and thus malfunction.

Inductive Proximity Switches SIMATIC PXI
Instinctive Response to Metal
When identifying metal objects without contact, inductive proximity switches are simply the most cost-effective solution. If an electrically or magnetically conductive object approaches or leaves, they automatically send out a signal change. Inductive proximity switches are extremely reliable with a high repeat accuracy. And thanks to wear-free operation as well as resistance to temperature, noise, light or water, they have a markedly long service life. We cover the complete application spectrum with a large variety of designs and transmission ranges.

Inductive proxistor's detect the presence of ferrous or non-ferrous metals without making contact and offer metal sensing unaffected by dirt, oil humidity & dust. This makes them particularly suitable for use in both the machine tool and general manufacturing environments where they are present in great volume and variety.
|
|
Inductive sensors (IAS) feature transistorised oscillators whose power consumption is influenced by the approach of metals and other electrically conductive materials such as carbon. Non-conductive metals can also achieve this effect.
These devices can be used as limit switches and position sensors for monitoring and positioning applica-tions in machines and installations as well as pulse generators for counter systems, distance measurements, speed control and many other applications

With our new Laser-Distance Sensors DLS-B you measure absolute distances up to 500 meters. Thanks to state of the art laser technology the DLS-B device measures with a precision of 1.5 millimeters. It represents a cost efficient solution even at extreme environment temperatures as low as -40° C.
The DLS-B is an optical measuring device. You can measure, maintenance-free, distances on natural and reflective surfaces. You determine positions on objects difficult to access or with very high surface temperatures. Just as well you can measure distances in an aggressive environment in an easy and accurate way.
Serial, analog and digital interfaces are standard features for the complete DLS-B product line. This enables you to easily connect the DLS-B to a control system (SPS, IPC or PC)
The DLS-B device runs in a “Stand-alone-mode” and independently executes all programmed functions. Thanks to the flexible range of functions an external display can be connected directly to the DLS-B device via interface RS232 or RS422. Via a digital input, measurements can also be activated from an external button or switch.
For easy configuration of the DLS-B devices, the necessary software is at your disposal.

The laser distance sensors of the L-LAS-LT and L-LAS-LT-MS series determine the distance or thickness of objects with highest accuracy. By way of a master/slave sensor arrangement, two laser distance sensors are evaluated by a controller that is integrated in the master sensor. A special version is available for optically transparent objects (flat glass, foils, wafers).
The laser distance sensor can be easily parameterised with the Windows® user interface L-LAS-LT-Scope or L-LAS-LT-MS-Scope.

The new SMAT continuously detects the position of the cylinder piston within a range of 50 mm. It has an analogue output with an output signal in proportion to the piston position. The integrated OOR (out-of-range) sensor indicates if the piston is outside the sensing range. The connection for evaluating the 0 … 10 V and/or the 4 … 20 mA signal is made directly to analogue inputs.
Typical areas of application in object detection are as follows:
Press-fitting, clamping, position sensing, workpiece replacement
In process monitoring:
Sheet metal handling/production, wear monitoring, quality inspection
- The installation direction of the SMAT in the slot can be chosen freely.
- Contactless measuring principle = wear-free sensing.
- Measuring range is always 50 mm, regardless of cylinder; reproducibility 0.1 mm.
