Long sensing range on all metals

K=1 for Kplus sensors

Inductive Kplus sensors have a correction factor of 1, meaning the sensing range is identical for all types of metal objects. Whether the target is steel, aluminum, copper, or other non-ferrous metals, the Kplus inductive proximity sensors can detect it reliably without reduction of sensing range. They are perfectly suited for detecting of aluminum, e.g., where conventional sensors show a correction factor of 0.4 or 60% reduction in sensing range. High switching frequencies of Kplus sensors allow the monitoring of fast-moving targets.


Senses all metals reliably without a reduction in range

Reduces inventory costs since one sensor detects all metals at the same range.
 

Sensing range is unaffected across the entire temperature range

Provides resistance to oils and coolants
