Revolutionary High Temperature Inductive Proximity Sensors from TURCK

Markham,ON—January 12, 2007—TURCK introduces new high temperature sensors that operate at up to 250°C (482°F), and provide the longest sensing range of their type in the industry. These devices feature a separate sensing head assembly and electronic amplifi er assembly to facilitate quick, cost-effective installation and maintenance.

Sensors used in high temperature applications have a shorter lifetime, typically 2000 hours, due to environmental conditions. TURCK’s CQ40 and CQ80 high temperature sensors are the fi rst in the industry to incorporate a sensing head separate from the electronic amplifi er assembly. Therefore, when the unit needs replacement, only the sensing head exposed to the high temperature environment will need to be replaced. TURCK’s high temperature sensors give you the freedom to replace only part of the sensor instead of the entire unit, signifi cantly reducing operating costs, while lessening maintenance down time.

These sensors are ideal for use in extremely high temperatures and heat intensive operations, like those found in drying and curing ovens in automotive painting systems, food and beverage, and metal processing applications. The sensors are interconnected with standard M12 eurofast ® quick-disconnects utilizing Tefl on cables encased by an aluminum sleeve to prevent contamination of automotive painting systems.

TURCK Inc. is a leading supplier of advanced sensing solutions to help manufacturers improve their automated processes, products and profits. Turck products are represented and sold in Canada by Chartwell Automation Inc., 140 Duffield Dr., Markham, Ontario. L6G 1B5.
