Miniature Sensors achieve 5 mm range when flush mounted.

Press Release Summary:



Measuring 12 x 40 x 26 mm, Q12 Uprox®+ sensors are resistant to EMI and have integrated 45° connector to facilitate use in space-restricted areas. Products, available with M8 picofast®, M12 eurofast®, or direct PUR cable connection, utilize 2-color LED that displays operating voltage and dampened state. Coils on PCB with staggered oscillator frequencies avoid mutual interference issues, allowing sensors to be mounted directly next to each other, fully flush, and embedded in metal.

Turck's Q12 Miniature Sensors Provide Unrivaled Sensing Distances



TURCK's new Q12 Uprox®+ sensors provide unrivaled sensing ranges from a miniature sensor. Q12 Uprox+ sensors are able to achieve a full 5 mm sensing range when flush mounted; the furthest among similar products on the market. The miniature sensors augment TURCK's existing line of Uprox+ sensors that detect all metals at the same rated sensing distance.

Q12 sensors measure a mere 12 x 40 x 26 mm, and feature an integrated 45 degree connector to facilitate use in space restrictive places. The Q12 is available with the M8 picofast®, M12 eurofast® or direct PUR cable connection, and utilizes a two-color LED that displays both operating voltage and dampened state.

Uprox+ sensors incorporate coils on a PCB with staggered oscillator frequencies to avoid mutual interference. This allows Q12 sensors to be mounted directly next to each other, fully flush, and embedded in metal. Uprox+ sensors are also highly resistant to electromagnetic interference and provide up to 250 percent higher sensing ranges than traditional ferrite core proximity sensors.
