The NAMCO Focused Field FlatPak™
Proximity Sensor is a Super Heavy Duty,
completely encapsulated sensor designed to
sense large metal objects at long ranges in
tough environments. It is the first sensor of
this body style to offer a focused sensing
field.

The focused sensing field allows this
sensor to be mounted flush with surrounding
metal with only a .25 inch gap between the
sensor and the metal surface. This sensor
will operate reliably in this setting without
adjustment all year round regardless of
changes in ambient temperature.

Competitive sensors have traditionally
included a trim pot to enable the user to
revise the sensing distance when ambient
conditions change. These sensors are
susceptible to substantial growth in sensing
range when ambient temperatures change
from season to season. They eventually “lock
on” to surrounding metal due to this growth
in range and to the unfocused nature of their
sensing fields.

The Namco Focused Field FlatPak™
Sensor has two advantages over competitive
products that eliminate the need for constant
adjustment. In fact,

there are no sensitivity adjustments to be
made, ever!!!

The first advantage is the focused
field. The shape of this field minimizes
sensing of surrounding metal. When
mounted in an identical setting to the
competitive switch, the Focused Field
FlatPak’s sensing range changes less than
10%, and the shape of the field stays focused
forward of the switch.

The second advantage is exceptional
stability over temperature. The Namco
FlatPak’s range will increase a maximum of
10% even at the maximum ambient tempera­ture, and the shape of the field will continue in
a non-side-sensing focused field.

The Namco Focused Field FlatPak™
proximity sensor requires only a .25 inch
clearance to surrounding metal. Once
installed with this clearance, the sensor will
never lock on to surrounding metal.

This Namco FlatPak also includes the
most noise resistant circuitry in the business,
Namco’s patented Weld Field Immune (WFI)
circuitry. Not only will the sensor operate
reliably in the presence of 20,000 amp weld
fields, it also powers up glitch-free and is
extremely resistant to radio frequency
interference and other forms of electrical noise.
Problems such as “false detection” and
“dropping out” are non-existent, further
minimizing programming and maintenance
requirements.

Namco’s WFI circuit includes latching
Short Circuit Protection (SCP). If the sensor
detects excessive current, it reverts to a sleep
state with LEDs flashing. This provides a
clear indication of a problem in the circuit,
simplifying the troubleshooting task. The
sensor draws minimal current (2 mA) and can
remain in this state indefinitely.

The Namco Focused Field FlatPak™
Sensor is designed to directly replace existing
sensors of this format. It mounts on 65mm
bolt centers and is the only sensor of this
type that is Made in the USA. It comes with a
Lifetime Free Replacement Warranty.
