UL rated, Proximity Detector™ Position
Sensors are reliable, magnetically actuated, stainless
steel, completely interchangeable with competitive units and
AC or DC for user friendly operation. They have no moving parts,
eliminate costly seal fittings and offer enhanced reliability
by eliminating arcing. Unintentional actuation by metals is
not a problem.
The sensor consists of a durable hermetically
sealed reed switch potted in stainless steel housing and a separate
316 stainless steel magnetic actuator bolt. Sensing distance
is 0.1" (2.54 mm) for the standard actuator. Greater sensitivity
of a larger magnetic actuator increases the sensing distance
to 0.5" (12.7 mm).
The Detector™ is excellent for hazardous
and corrosive environments, solid state and intrinsically safe
applications, and may be mounted in any in any position. For
installation in hazardous locations be sure to check local electrical
codes. The Detector™ meets NEMA 1, 3, 4, 4X, 6, 7, 9, 12
and 13; and is certified Class I, Groups A, B, C and D; Class
II, Groups E, F and G, Divisions 1, 2 and 3, and IP68 submersible. Dimensional
