SIA Inductive Ring Sensors

SIA Inductive ring sensors detect the presence of metal objects passing through the sensing field located inside the ring. They are particularly suitable for detecting small metal parts made of either ferrous or non-ferromagnetic metals. Some of the many applications for inductive ring sensors include: vacuum part feeders, screw feeders, broken wire detection, congestion detection in clogged supply tubes, part ejection jamming during production, counting pieces, and monitoring the free flow of metal objects in open air.

The sensors are available in 9 internal ring diameters ranging from 5 to 100mm. Object size resolutions range from 1 to 12 mm for spheres. Models available in NPN and PNP outputs with selectable pulse stretching.

Sensor hook-up connections are model dependent and available with a cable, or quick connect M8 and M12 connectors.
