Temposonics R Series V-type sensors - New corrosion resistant housing

     For applications that operate under many extreme conditions, reliable measurement systems are difficult to find. Temposonics introduces a new R Series V sensor designed specifically to meet these needs.

     The new generation of advanced sensors focuses on Industry 4.0 (IIoT) capabilities to support equipment condition monitoring, predictive maintenance and process optimization. The R-Series V-type sensors feature a high-grade stainless steel housing that protects the built-in sensors from fluids, corrosion and extreme harsh environments. From waterlogged environments to factory production lines, the new sensors meet industry application standards and enable accurate position measurement in many types of applications.

     This rugged Temposonics sensor features an RM5 super protective housing that ensures reliable linear position measurement over long periods of time in harsh environments. Made entirely of stainless steel 1.4404 (AISI 316L) material, the rugged design ensures that the sensors operate in harsh environments, helping users save downtime and operating costs.

     The output options for the displacement sensor have also been expanded, with EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, POWERLINK and PROFINET outputs now available in addition to analog and SSI outputs. Rich interface signals provide new options for a wide range of applications. "These expanded capabilities enable the customer to integrate the product into a wider range of systems, enabling users to explore new uses and get more value from their equipment investment," said Dr. Olaf Kissing, Product Manager.

     Paired with TempoLink and TempoGate intelligent assistants, the R-Series V-type sensors provide comprehensive operational data such as sensor status, operating temperature, operating time, and magnet travel distance to help achieve predictive maintenance and optimize system performance. "This combination of strengths enables customers to dramatically improve application flexibility, operational efficiency and long-term reliability," Dr. Kissing concluded.
