- Wide operating temperature range - High protection rating for the requirements of harsh industrial environments - Reliable detection due to low sensor tolerances - Reduced storage due to wide range of applications Inductive sensors are nowadays indispensable for industrial applications. As compared to mechanical switches they offer almost ideal conditions: non-contact operation free from any wear and tear, high switching frequencies and accuracy. In addition, they are insensitive to vibration, dust and moisture. Inductive sensors detect all metals without contact.
