For oils andcoolants
Full-metal sensors, T, R, C and S series
Full-metal sensor of the C series –developed for use under extremeinfluences such as oils, coolants andvibration. The suitability for the appli-cation is checked by a tough test pro-gram. The sensors are subjected toextreme mechanical shocks and vibra-tions.
Installed in welding applications, thesensor of the R series detects the posi-tion of the metal target. Its non-stickcoating makes it resistant to weldspatter. Already subjected to theimpact test in the development stage,it withstands the harsh conditions ofthe metalworking industry.
A full-metal sensor of the T seriesmonitors the valve positions in a dairy.Successfully carried out temperatureshock tests prove the reliability of thesensors in this industry. Further testscheck, among others, ageing andmaterial resistance.
Every applicationhas specific re-quirements forsensors.
Therefore, ifm hasdeveloped threeseries of full-metalinductive sensorswhich are opti-mised for the re-quirements ofdifferent environ-mental conditions.
The new non-flushfull-metal sensorsfrom ifm stand outthanks to highsensing ranges of6 to 25 mm – notonly on steel but
also on stainlesssteel, even withsmall targets.Further excellentcharacteristics in-clude an extremelyhigh temperaturerange up to 100 °C,the protectionrating IP 69K, aspecial non-stickcoating or a cor-rection factor ofK = 0.
The connectors ofthe ecolink seriesare ideally compat-ible with the full-metal inductivesensors and to-gether form asealed system.

T series:Completely sealed for hygienicand wet areas – the full-metalsensors of the T series have beenspecially designed for use in thefood industry. The ecolink EVTconnector forms a sealed systemtogether with the sensor.
R series:Robust and resistant to mechani-cal stress – the full-metal sensorsof the R series are designed forthe metalworking and automo-tive industries. The sensing facewith a special coating lets weldspatter roll off. Weld slagresistant nuts and cables makeecolink EVW the perfect partnerfor sensors.
C series:Resistant to oils and coolants –the full-metal sensors of theC series are ideal for use in themetalworking industry. The oil-resistant ecolink EVC connectorensures a higher operationalreliability due to the vibrationprotection with end stop.
S series:The standard magnetic sensorsfor industrial applications.Thanks to the full-metal housingand protection rating IP 67 thesensors can also be used in roughenvironments.
Full-metal inductive andmagnetic sensors.
Magnetic sensorsfrom ifmelectronic are usedfor non-contactdetection of posi-tions, e.g. of mag-nets and pigs.The sensors candetect magnetsthrough materialslike stainless steel,non-ferrous metal,aluminium, plasticand glass.
Due to the GMRtechnology themagnetic sensorsfeature very longsensing rangesand high switchingfrequencies.Therefore, theycan be used in par-ticularly demand-ing applications.
The sensors areavailable in M12and M18 cylindri-cal housings withconnector.

Assessment of variable featuresof objects and scenes.
For industrialapplications
Vision sensor efector dualis type O2V
While commonvision sensorscheck parts on thebasis of definedcontours (like theefector dualis con-tour sensor O2D)the new O2Vvision sensor com-pares on the basisof variable fea-tures.
Instead of a de-fined contour theuser determinesrelative featuresused by the sensorto assess an objector a scene.
Within adjustabletolerances the sen-sor determinescharacteristics suchas the area of anobject (number ofpixels), the innerand outer objectsize of an irregularobject geometry,roundness or com-pactness or thenumber of avail-able holes.Furthermore, thegrey-scale valuescan also be usedfor assessment.
The O2V visionsensor is reliablyused for the full /empty control oftransport and pro-duction vessels.The photo on theright shows, forexample, 100 %empty control of achocolate mould.
Check objects for presence,size, position or completeness.
The vision sensor checks the presenceof adhesive labels or imprints, such asproduction or best before date.The sensor also detects colour markssuch as mounting points or defectmarks – applied by machine or by hand.
Dual-sheet detection for automatedgripper systems as is frequently usedin the automotive industry is just aspossible as the counting of sheets orfastening clips. Due to their varyingreflections it is difficult to representthem by means of a contour.
The object inspection unit checks thepresence or position of weld seams,weld spots or areas which went bluein variably degrees due to the highwelding temperature. Even irregularlyapplied materials such as glues orgreases are detected.
Object inspection forpackaging, production andquality control.

Online vibration monitoring –simply smart.
Vibration sensor efector octavis type VN
Due to unbalance or misalignment,machine vibration can quickly exceed apermissible level. The result: unexpect-ed failures and reduced down-time.The VN sensor continuously detects,displays and documents vibrationsfrom 120 rpm.
The vibrationsensor VNB001 isthe first memberof a new, innova-tive series ofcompact vibrationsensors withalphanumericaldisplay.It monitors theoverall vibrationcondition ofmachines andplants accordingto ISO 10816 and isdistinguished byits simple set up.No additionalPC software isrequired.The sensing princi-ple is based on the
proven efectoroctavis MEMStechnology (micro-electromechanicalsystems) and mea-sures the averagevibration velocityin mm/s or in/s.Measured valueand switching sta-tus are indicatedon the LED display.Critical machineconditions can besignalled using 2switching outputsor 1 switching out-put and 1 ana-logue input.The unit can bepowered using theintegrated USBinterface.
As an alternative,it can be used as ahandheld devicevia the USB inter-face.Another advan-tage: dual pointmeasurement witha further processvalue such astemperature ispossible using thesensor’s analogueinput.
In addition, theunit features anon-board time-stamped historyfunction for datalogging andtrending.

Machines with process-related vibra-tions must be operated within a certainoperating range, which can be moni-tored using overall vibration.VN reliably records vibration up to500 mm/s and transmits the values tothe controller.
Using the sensor’s USB interface a sim-ple tablet PC becomes a portable datarecorder, recording the raw vibrationdata. As an alternative, VN can beturned into a mobile measuring device,with direct display of the measuredvalue thanks to its USB interface.
