Rugged Sensors for Tough Applications

Inductive
M18X1 For error-proofing and part-present
25
2.5 applications in heavy manufacturing, inductive
sensors are often (by necessity) placed
directly in harm’s way. Impact, abrasion, and
particulate erosion can destroy conventional
24 plastic-faced sensors and their thin metal
bodies. Balluff SteelFace® sensors are
designed and built tough to survive longer in
your most abusive applications. Machined
from solid stainless steel bar stock, SteelFace

1
sensors can extend life expectancy where
blunt impact, abrasion, and erosion quickly

bring standard sensors to their knees. Balluff

 Inductive
Sensors Overview Welding Sensors
Welding Sensors

Standard inductive proximity sensors are not designed for operation in the presence of strong magnetic fields
generated by modern welding processes. Powerful magnetic fields can adversely influence their coil oscillator
circuits, causing false sensor lock-on - even when no target is present.

Balluff offers two similar but distinct product families designed to be immune to the influence of strong magnetic
fields: Weld Field Immune + Factor 1, and Weld Field Immune.

WELDFIELD Immune + Factor 1

Balluff Weld Field Immune + Factor 1 sensors are inherently weld
field immune due to their coreless dual sensing coil design. As
an added benefit, these “Factor 1” sensors do not require de-
rating (0.6, 0.5, etc.) of the nominal sensing distance when the
target is a material other than steel, such as aluminum or brass.
However, Balluff Weld Field Immune + Factor 1 sensors are first
and foremost welding sensors, so they are all offered with
PTFE-coated bodies and LCP+PTFE faces to resist weld slag
accumulation. They are also optionally available with
SlagMaster® ceramic-based coating on the active surface to
further prolong sensor functionality in the presence of hot weld
spatter (see below).

WELD FIELD Immune

Balluff Weld Field Immune (non-Factor 1) sensors are designed
with special filtering and robust detector circuits that enable
them to withstand the influence of strong magnetic fields. They
are all offered with PTFE-coated bodies and pure PTFE faces to
resist weld slag accumulation. They are also optionally available
with SlagMaster® ceramic-based coating on the active surface
to further prolong sensor functionality in the presence of hot
weld spatter (see below).

SlagMaster ®
SlagMaster® is a proprietary ceramic-based protective coating
that is factory-applied over the sensing face. By resisting the
effects of continuous hot weld spatter, SlagMaster prolongs
sensor life by resisting the melting and erosion of the sensor
face. It also enhances sensor reliability by repelling weld berries
that could become embedded into the sensor face and cause
the sensor to lock on.

Weld Field Immune Sensors

Inductive
Balluff Weld Field Immune (non-Factor 1)
sensors are designed with special filtering and
robust detector circuits that enable them to
withstand the influence of strong magnetic
fields. They are all offered with PTFE-coated
bodies and pure PTFE faces to resist weld
slag accumulation. They are also optionally
available with SlagMaster® ceramic-based
coating on the active surface to further
prolong sensor functionality in the presence of

1
hot weld spatter.

SlagMaster®

Inductive
SlagMaster® is a proprietary ceramic-based
protective coating that is factory-applied over
the sensing face. By resisting the effects of
continuous hot weld spatter, SlagMaster
prolongs sensor life by resisting the melting
and erosion of the sensor face. It also
enhances sensor reliability by repelling weld
berries that could become embedded into the
sensor face and cause the sensor to lock on.

Quick Installation

Inductive
The compression ring and metal nut allow tubular sensors to
be installed without the use of tools. After the initial install, the
prox mount stays in place allowing easy replacement and
minimizing down time.

Sensor Protection
The PTFE coating repels weld slag. Prox mounts, when used
with Bunker Blocks®, provide maximum protection to sensors
in the most abusive environments.

Note: The sensing range of the inductive proximity sensor may

1
be slightly reduced when using the positive stop models.

Popular in many "New Domestic"
automotive plants and automotive tier
suppliers, Balluff’s 2-wire DC tubular
sensors are offered in Polarized and Non-
Polarized configurations, flush and non-
flush mounting, in standard and extended
sensing ranges. Some models are also
available with PTFE-coated housings to
help repel welding spatter.

SuperShortiesTM

Inductive
Exceptionally short tubular inductive
proximity sensors, Balluff SuperShortiesTM
open up new frontiers for machine
designers. Intended primarily for OEM
applications, these ultra-short sensors help
fuel the drive toward more compact
machinery. Balluff SuperShorties™ can be
installed into cramped places where
conventional inductive sensors simply won’t
fit. Their extremely low mass enables
abrupt acceleration and deceleration on
highly dynamic, fast-moving equipment
without adding excessive inertial load. 1

Inductive
Balluff PROXINOX® and PROXINOX® Harsh
Environment sensors are designed for wet and
washdown conditions in the chemical and food
industries. These sensors are resistant to
aggressive cleaning agents, coolants, oils, and
hydraulic fluids. PROXINOX sensors are
available in two body types: LED and non-LED.
The latter offers additional features giving it
even greater resistance to harsh environments
as described later in this section.

Glass molding applications require high
temperature tolerance due to the high radiant
heat of the liquid glass. Many industrial
processes require baking in curing ovens.
For these and similar applications, where
reliable sensor function at high ambient
temperatures is required, Balluff offers High

operating in ambient temperatures from -25 to
up to +120°C (+248°F), Balluff high

Analog Inductive Sensors

Inductive
Ideal for applications involving relatively short
travel of metal targets, Balluff analog inductive
sensors provide precision non-contact
position measurement in an affordable family of
compact housings. Analog inductive sensors
are simple three-wire devices that operate on
24V DC. They provide an electrical output
signal that varies linearly in proportion to the
position of a metal target within their working
range. The analog output signal is available in

1
either voltage or current.

Some of the numerous applications in measuring and – Distance-proportional analog signal

controlling include: – Housing sizes Ø 6.5...80×80
– Sensing ranges 1...50 mm
– Distance measurement – Non-contact, absolute operating principle
– Thickness measurement – High repeat accuracy
– Run-off measurement – Low temperature drift
– Belt/band width measurement – LED for setup aid
– Detection of surface waves – Compact, sealed, rugged and reliable
– Counting
– Positioning

Approach curve Reslution Application Notes:

1. BAW sensors are a pure analog device with

theoretically infinite resolution.

2. Application resolution depends on ambient electrical

noise level.

3. Typical industrial application noise level is 10-15mV.

4. If application level noise proves troublesome, a

connectorized model and shielded cordset are
recommended.

Switching Outputs

This device can be connected

to any Balluff 0…10V analog
sensor (Inductive,
Photoelectric, BIL) and provide
an analog output plus 3
integrated switching outputs.

Analog sensors provide a signal

which is proportional to the
target distance from the sensor
face. However, many
applications also require a
switching signal at certain
points along the full range.

The 3 switching outputs are

programmed using a teach-in PNP Normally-open BES 516-615-PS-1-PU-05
procedure by holding a target in NPN Normally-open BES 516-615-NS-1-PU-05
postion and momentarily

In addition to the 3 digital Protected Against Polarity Reversal yes

Inductive
Ring Sensors

Balluff’s ring sensors can detect small

metal objects passing through their
active window. They can be used in a
variety of automated assembly
applications including feed monitors for
screws, nails, nuts, bolts, or many other
small metal parts. The output of the
unit is static, which means that it
remains active as long as the metal part
is present in the sensing zone.
