Inductive proximity sensor catalogue
The new Balluff inductive proximity sensor catalogue features just some of the thousands of their most popular sensors for industrial applications
This is the right sensor wherever the cylinders are subjected to high temperatures, such as hydraulic cylinders on high-temperature injection molds or other high-performance hydraulic systems whose hydraulic fluids can reach high temperatures.
The model BHS B135V-PSD15-S04-T01 sensor features both a normally open switching output and an integrated temperature sensor for detecting the cylinder temperature.
The measured temperature is provided as a voltage value (1 _ 5.5 V) on a separate analog output.
With a length of 78 mm in a standard M12 housing, the sensor can also be retrofitted for temperature monitoring functions on hydraulic cylinders with piston position sensing.
A combination O-ring/support ring seals the area between the pressurized and pressureless area.
The nominal switching distance is 1.5 mm at an ambient temperature of up to 120deg C.
