Function

Reduction factor 1 sensors reliably detect different metals with the same switch state.

The integrated IO-Link interface enables clear identification of the sensor and diagnosis of the sensor condition. When using the sensor, parameters and operating modes can be optimally configured specifically for the intended application. In addition to setting the switching function and a pulse extension, the user can select either switch point mode or window mode in combination with a stability alarm.

In switch point mode, the stability alarm signals the detection of an object in the area between the assured operating distance and operating distance sn. In window mode, it signals the detection of an object below the window between operating distance sn and the nearest operating distance. A stability alarm is displayed to the user via a flashing LED and process data.
