Functional principle
Inductive sensors detect metal objects contactless and wear-free. For this purpose they
use a high-frequency electromagnetic AC
field that interacts with the target. The sensors
hosting a ferrite core coil generate the AC field
through an LC resonant circuit.
Special versions are available for ambient
temperatures between -60°C and +250°C.
