EATON E59 Series iProx Programmable Inductive Proximity Sensors
Eaton E59 Series iProx programmable inductive proximity sensors detect the presence or absence of metallic objects in a specific sensing area. They work based on the principle of electromagnetic induction and are used in industrial automation, machine control and other applications where reliab...le detection of metal objects is required.Read more
Working Mechanism
- When a metal object comes within the unit's proximity, it causes changes in the magnetic field.
- The sensor detects the change and converts it into an electrical signal.
- This signal can be programmed to trigger specific actions or outputs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can these sensors be used for position sensing?
Yes, Eaton iProx programmable inductive proximity sensors can be used for position sensing by configuring the sensor to detect changes in the magnetic field.
What factors affect the performance of proximity sensors?
The performance of proximity sensors can be affected by temperature, humidity, electromagnetic interference and the type & size of the object being detected.
How do you select the right proximity sensor for a specific application?
When selecting a proximity sensor, consider the operating range, the type of object to be detected, the environment in which the sensor will be used and the desired output.
