Operating principle
The temperature sensors of ifm electronic are based on a Pt1000 resistor. The measured temperature value corresponds to a change in resistance and is converted into an electrical analogue signal. The microprocessor and the display make process adjustment much easier. The user can set the values for the switch points, hysteresis and measuring range by means of programming buttons even without the system temperature being applied. This enables installation and setup of the system within a few minutes. Film technology is used for the electronic circuitry. A flexible, temperature-resistant and extremely resistant polyimide film is used as carrier of the SMD components. Together with a special potting method an extreme shock and vibration resistance is achieved.

ifm electronic
ifm electronic gmbh is one of the leading manufacturers of automation technology world-wide. More than 3,000 employees in more than 70 countries develop solutions for 80,000 customers in the manufacturing industries. By optimising technical processes in the automotive, chemical and cosmetics industries or in environmental technology and automation of buildings ifm electronic has consistently set new standards and thus ensures tomorrow's production processes.

The family-run company with headquarters in Essen started with the invention of inductive proximity sensors in 1969. The German production in Tettnang on Lake Constance has ensured brand quality right from the start. Today "efector" stands for position and fluid sensors, object recognition, diagnostic and identification systems. The brand "ecomat" is synonymous with networking and control systems. In 2007 ifm made a turnover of more than € 410 million with above-average product quality, exceptional innovations and consistent close contact to the customer.
