Inductive sensor is rugged and food safe
22 September 2008
The Contrinex Series 700 range of rugged inductive sensors is available in food-safe stainless steel (V4A/AISI 316L/DIN 1.4435). The range has a locking ring with spanner flats so that a moisture-tight connection can be achieved offering protection up to IP69K.

Contrinex sensors designed for food industry
Contrinex has introduced a range of rugged IP69K plugs for use with the food sensors.
Contrinex food sensors can withstand extreme impact and high shock levels and are highly resistant to corrosion by cleaning and disinfecting agents and organic acids. The cable and connector assembly is fully pressure-resistant up to 80 bar on M12 sensors, 60 bar on M18 and 40 bar on M30 making them suitable for virtually all processes likely to be met in the food industry.
The application of innovative Contrinex sensing technology produces a sensing distance that is three times that of conventional sensors thus reducing the possibility of collision damage.
The sensors have a built-in LED plus short circuit, voltage reversal and overload protection as well as being stable from -25ºC to +85ºC.
