Motion Sensors / Detectors / Transducers

Sensors detect damaging unit vibration levels.

Connected to devices such as linear modules, rotary actuators, and grippers, V-Sensors detect damaging unit vibration levels in automation process. They can also signal when industrial shock absorber is nearing end of its life-cycle, helping prevent repair, maintenance, and downtime. Available in PNP, NPN, and analog versions with various installation adapters, sensors are also offered with...
