High Temperature Factor 1 Sensors for Washdown Environments

Markham,ON—May 1, 2008—TURCK’s line of uprox+ Factor 1 sensors now include IP 69k rated washdown versions with temperature ratings from -40 to 100 C. These sensors are designed to be highly resilient to the high-pressure cleaning agents often found in the food and beverage and pharmaceutical industries.

The sensors incorporate durable 316 stainless steel construction and a liquid crystal polymer front cap that aids in resisting moisture ingress. It also consists of a polypropylene cable jacket that stands up to harsh chemicals and extreme temperatures.

uprox+ sensors feature longer sensing ranges for detecting all metals, including non-ferrous metals such as stainless steel, at the same rated distance. This is especially useful in applications like food and beverage where the targets are often made from stainless steel.

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.
