Sensor Versions

Magnetic field sensors are available in different versions. Depending on the application, different output logic, connection types, materials, and designs may be necessary for effective use.

This section covers which magnetic field sensors Pepperl+Fuchs offers for various applications.

Application-Specific Magnetic Field Sensors

The respective output logic of the sensor provides information as to whether it is a binary sensor with two defined states, analog output values, or a data-transferring sensor.

Available Types of Output

Magnetic field sensors can be used for a variety of applications. The various versions of sensors with fixed cables with or without plugs or with connector plugs are available as standard in various designs.

Connection Methods

The outer material is a key factor when choosing a sensor, since it must be suitable for the application's ambient conditions. This is the only way to ensure reliable operation of machinery and plants.

Materials

Magnetic field sensors are available in various designs to meet the requirements of different intended purposes and installation situations. Cylindrical and cubic designs are typical.

Housing Designs

Certain sensors have a range of special features that make them suitable for use in special applications.
