Pepperl+Fuchs Plugged-In: Product Reveal Pepperl+Fuchs Plugged-In: Product Reveal

Sensing and control technology for mobile, agricultural, and industrial equipment of all types has developed considerably over time. For the reliable operation of a vehicle or piece of equipment, it is critical that the signal from a sensor actually reflects the condition the sensor is monitoring. Pepperl+Fuchs has recently launched a family of positive indication sensors designed for the harsh environmental conditions of vehicles and equipment used in the mobile equipment industry. These sensors are unique in the industry, offering an extremely durable and vibration-resistant design, a degree of protection of up to IP69K, as well as E1 approval for mobile machines and vehicles. These sensors are the only ones in the industry that allow a controller to detect a faulty sensor or cable malfunction based on a real input signal.

Join Helge Hornis and Cory Ockunzzi as they discuss the new Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) with CANopen interface. This sensor is an addition to the IMU with J1939 interface. Helge and Cory will also explore the differences between dynamic applications that require an IMU and static applications where an inclination sensor can be used.

Active Shielding is an innovative technology by Pepperl+Fuchs that makes no compromises. Extended range inductive sensors are much more sensitive to installation conditions, causing the sensing range of a sensor to vary greatly depending on the installation location. Not so with Pepperl+Fuchs Active Shielding proximity sensors! This technology ensures a large and incredibly stable sensing range. No more compromises.

In this episode, we present the all-new PMI F166 Series with IO-Link. This compact inductive positioning system features a metal housing and an IO-Link interface that can be used to set the detection range and switch points/windows and allows direct access to process data and value-added data such as error messages. We will also review the other IO-Link models in our PMI offering and discuss their possible applications.

Typical proximity sensors can detect different types of metals, but all with very different detection ranges. The range for copper can be up to 70% less than the maximum range of a sensor. The range can even vary slightly between different types of the same metal, for example, mild steel or carbon steel. Reduction Factor 1 sensors have multiple sensing coils that work together to detect multiple metals in the same range. Combined with IO-Link, this provides a sensor with unmatched flexibility that can be configured for many applications. Don’t be limited by a switch.

In the early days of the Internet of Things, or IoT, it was mainly known in the computer industry, with IBM being one of the first users of this technology in the 1980s. Today, in 2024, the IoT, or a networked smart device, is probably familiar to anyone who has a Blink security camera or smart plug installed in their home. But the IoT is not only known in the PC or consumer tech market - in manufacturing, especially in automation, the IoT has made a significant impact and will continue to do so in the coming years. A market manager at one of the key technology manufactures in automation asks: “What does IoT mean to us?
