With a smaller diameter and shorter length than standard sized switches, these fit in the most space-constrained areas.

Eliminate the need to calculate the sensing distance when using different metals—these switches sense all metal at the same distance. Also known as K=1 sensors.

Sense objects from farther away than with other DC proximity switches that have the same diameter.

Use these switches to sense metallic objects in environments containing flammable gases and combustible dust. ATEX and IECEx certified to protect against explosion, they produce a low-current, low-voltage NAMUR signal, so they won’t ignite or create sparks.

These inductive proximity switches sense metallic objects each time they pass through the slot, even when they’re obscured by water, oil, dirt, or a surface finish. Use them to measure the speed of rotating equipment and to count or detect moving objects, such as sheet metal being fed into a stamping process.

Twist the sensor to detect metallic objects where explosive dust or gas may be present—the sensor rotates for front, side, top, or bottom sensing. These switches are UL and C-UL listed as well as ATEX and IECEx certified for hazardous locations.

For use in volatile areas, these intrinsically safe switches detect objects when they pass through the slot. They use a NAMUR signal to operate at a low current and voltage, so they won’t ignite or create sparks. ATEX and IECEx certified, they protect against explosion.

Most often found in older devices, these switches require AC input voltage.

Switches accept both AC and DC input voltage.

Mount these flat inductive switches to a base or rail to remotely detect metallic objects in wet and dirty environments.

Easily mount these flat switches to a base or rail.

These switches use a NAMUR signal to operate at a low current and voltage, so they won’t ignite or produce sparks. ATEX certified, they protect against explosion in environments containing flammable gases and combustible dust. Switches sense both metallic and nonmetallic objects.

Mount proximity switches into a panel cutout or tank wall.

For optimal performance in tight spaces, these switches have a smaller beam and can detect smaller objects than standard photoelectric switches.

A built-in relay produces AC voltage output. These switches are often used with older programmable logic controllers (PLCs).

Rated IP69K, these switches can withstand high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns and temporary submersion.

Light beams travel up to 32 ft. between the transmitter and receiver.

Set these switches to delay activation by up to fifteen seconds after detecting an object.

Scanning 275° side-to-side for people and objects, these switches (known as safety laser scanners) cover large areas and send signals to machinery to prevent accidents.

These switches detect magnetic objects—or objects with a magnet attached—through non-magnetic walls.

Safely transmit power to switches and sensors in highly volatile areas. Commonly used in refineries, power plants, and wastewater-treatment facilities, these barriers use a NAMUR signal to reduce the current and voltage coming from your power supply—preventing sparks and ignition.

Support flow and temperature control in your system with these intrinsically safe switches, which sense when a valve is open or closed in volatile areas. They are ATEX and IECEx certified to protect against explosion.

Wire contacts to an alarm system to alert when doors or windows are opened.

To provide more mounting flexibility than other sensor and switch mounting brackets, the head rotates 360°.

The spring-loaded design absorbs impact to protect sensors and switches from damage.

With strength for higher load capacities than other ball-grip positioning arms, these arms have a heavy duty construction.

Use high-frequency sound waves to detect chemical level.

Measure the level of conductive liquids without drilling a hole in your tank—these switches mount to the outside of the tank and track the capacitance between them and the tank’s contents.

Measure the distance to objects and the level of liquids and materials despite size, shape, or surface finish, and send that information to other parts of your system.
