Suitable for applications in the automotive and automated assembly industries, the sensors are capable of withstanding impact, abrasion and particulate erosion, which can destroy conventional plastic-faced sensors, the company says. The sensors’ flatpack design includes a one-piece stainless steel housing with a weld slag-resistant W51 coating. They feature round corner housing, high switching frequency and 5-mm flush operating distance, and can sense virtually all metals.
