|
| A Smart sensor has advantages - based on it`s specific properties - in their specific field of application. Proxitron sensors are often equipped with an internal processor. This processor can take on additional tasks. We offer you to use the available resources in your favor. |

Examples for a smart sensor
|
|
| An inductive sensor registers the cam of a rotating shaft: The output switches and the LED starts to flash. |
|
Speedcontroller >> |
The sensor compares the switching pulses/minute with a value set by the user. The output indicates an undershoot and/or exceeding the limit. Other options: start-up delay, Teach-In function, programmer.
|
|
| A capacitive senor signals falling below a liquid level. Disadvantage: Minimum withdrawals or the compression of the bulk material lead to a re-filling. |
|
Level control for example in Silos >> |
The sensor signal ist starting an integrated adjustable time delay (1000-6000 seconds) after which the output signal triggers the filling process. Advantage: the timer function replaces a sensor for the lower switching point. Optional: relay output for 230 VAC |
|
| The air flow sensor FKM 231 monitors air currents 1 - 16 m/s. |
|
Teach-In function Proxi-Teach >> |
The air flow sensor with a preset limit is subjected to the nomal operational flow. By pressing the Teach-In button, the sensor sets the right limit. Advantage: easy setup. |
|
Inductive sensors are disturbed by the matallic environment at the installation. The required installation conditions can not be met.
|
|
Teach-In function Proxi-Teach available for almost inductive sensors. |
With a Teach-In button the sensor registers its environment affecting him and adjusts the operation distance on the maximum allowable value. More knowledge is not required for assembly. |
|
The Piros Hot Metal Detector is used to track warm slabs in the steel mill.
|
|
Dynamic Teach-In function Proxi-Teach >> |
In critical applications the surface temperature change on the fly. The dynamic Teach-In function guides the working of the sensor continuously. Malfunctions can be prevented.
