Inductive sensor that is highly reliable and achieves highly accurate strip position control even in the high temperature, powdery, and pickling environments of steel works

• A customer is troubled by the false operation of an existing optical sensor because it is installed in an environment heavily affected by particles, scales, fume, dust, and oil mist.
• The optical sensor malfunctions if sludge falls from a strip onto the sensor or reflection of the strip
• A capacitance sensor malfunctions if an operator or other person approaches.
• The sensor is often damaged because it is installed in a high temperature environment.
• A customer is troubled by the unstable operation of a sensor that is used in a picking bath.

The inductive sensors manufactured by EMG in Germany are the most suitable for use in resolving the above problems!

• The standard inductive sensor solves the problems of adverse environments.
• The inductive sensor for high temperature applications solves the problems of high temperature environments of up to 1100degrees Celsius.
• A special inductive sensor can be designed and supplied for specific harsh environments such as picking baths.

• Problems difficult to solve with conventional approaches can be overcome and stable operation achieved.
• Long-life maintenance free sensors with no consumable parts and no service costs.
• No extra investment in ancillary facilities is necessary because the high temperature application sensor does not need to be cooled.

3 to 5 months will be necessary from accepting an order to shipment.

• Improvements or modifications of the mounting table for the sensor will be required.
• A signal converter for the interface used with the sensor signal may be required.

Major applicable fields

The sensors are used in steel plate processing lines of iron works.
