Magnetic Field Sensors

Magnetic Field Sensors

Where the technology of inductive sensors reaches its limits, magnetic field sensors are a highly versatile alternative. They can reliably detect magnetic fields through non-magnetizable materials.

Pepperl+Fuchs' magnetic field sensor selection consists of the cylindrical housing style for traditional magnetic detection applications. Also offered is a non-contact, piston detection sensor for use with steel hydraulic cylinders. These magnetic sensors offer reliable piston magnet detection and are easily mounted, without the need for mounting slots or holes in the cylinder.
