Cylindrical inductive sensors
|
|
The GX cylindrical inductive sensor series with built-in amplifier is offered in two versions - with and without threaded section. A large number of special types permit application-optimized equipping. GX sensors have a large switching range and are provided with an indicator LED for checking the functionality. Sensors of the GX series have robust cases and reinforced cables with 10-times the life of conventional connecting cables.
Characteristics:
- Robust cases with or without threaded section
- Indicator LED
- Built-in amplifier
- Inflection resistant cable, optional (-R)
- Oil and heat resistant cable
- At 3.0 mm dia, one of the smallest sensor heads for industrial applications
- Each sensor is available in 4 versions. They differ due to normally-open and normally-closed contact functions on object approach, standard or inflection resistant cables
