Excellent process reliability, optimum performance and

maximum reliability:

The new and comprehensive portfolio of sensors brings

together these important core values and facilitates trouble-

free and efficient manufacturing processes.

Many sensors offer the best technically feasible and practi -

cal solutions. From the world's smallest inductive sensor to

factor 1 technology. From colour sensors to monitoring

smooth running; and yet they are very competitively

priced.

These products are naturally fully coordinated with

products and services from Festo.

Proximity sensors, position transmitters and connection technology

This range began with a proximity switch in Festo’s portfolio

of sensors which was optimally coordinated for use with

pneumatic drives. New variants and completely new function -

alities were created on the basis of this stable and successful

platform. The analogue position transmitter was a logical

development.

Position transmitter: Continuous position detection with

analogue value output

Proximity sensor: Binary position detection on the drive

Check to ascertain that an item is in position using the

pressure and vacuum switch SDE5

The pressure sensor SDE1 is integrated into a service unit

and monitors the pressure range of a pulsed air motor.

Detecting large distances: inductive proximity sensors

SIEF-Q40

Position detection with the analogue inductive sensor SIEA

With connectivity in mind, the NEBU modular system for con-

necting cables provides excellent connections for the SVE4

signal converters for example – and in the case of the NEBU

system, this even extends to all sensor types from Festo and

more besides.

Pressure and vacuum sensors

Efficient and reliable pressure and vacuum monitoring and

control combined with flow monitoring are of the utmost im -

portance when pneumatic systems are used for automation.

They broaden the range for which systems can be used, offer

more safety and also provide the option of remote mainte-

nance and monitoring. Quick and simple to operate thanks

to the uniform control and display concept utilised with all

of Festo’s pressure sensors.

Flow monitoring provides simpler diagnostic and condition

monitoring processes: A change in the flow rates is often an

indicator that problems are likely to occur. Areas of applica-

tion: Detection of very small particles, acceptance inspec-

tions of components with sensitive surfaces, acceptance

records, functional monitoring, leak testing, checking to

ascertain that an item is in position.
