The M18 series Inductive Distance Sensor provide an output signal proportional to the distance from the damping target surface. In many applications the idea is to also generate a switching signal at particular points along the output curve. These switching signals indicate when a particular position, e.g. the distance to a machine member, is reached. Balluff has developed an analogue distance sensor with three integrated switching thresholds. These switching thresholds are programmable and are provided on separate outputs as a switching signal. Instead of installing two devices, now all you need is a single sensor. By programming the switching outputs using a control line you can set them when the sensor is installed in a difficult to access location. Programming of the 3 switching outputs is accomplished using a teaching procedure. The sensor is simply brought to the desired switching distance from the object.
