Proximity switches

17 July 2002 Switches, Relays & Keypads

Due to present day production and strict automation and quality control requirements - plant and equipment has to be fitted with modern and sophisticated proximity switches. Steinecker proximity switches are manufactured from stainless steel or high impact plastic and are sealed against the ingress of moisture, dust and dirt - with their inherent potential free reed contacts are suitable for many applications:

* End position sensing.

* Position interlocking on cylinders.

* Monitoring of stationary and moving modes.

* Valve position indicators and interlocking sensors.

* Liquid level monitoring - full/empty vessels.

* Flow monitoring.

Switching hysteresis is low, and the operating range can be varied depending upon the particular requirements. Available with 'normally open', 'normally closed' or 'change over' contacts. Connecting cables are included if required.
