Inductive proximity sensors

Inductive sensors play a vital role in automation technology, enabling the precise detection of metal objects without physical contact. They operate at high switching frequencies and offer exceptional accuracy, making them indispensable for modern automated systems. di-soric's inductive sensors are highly resistant to vibrations, dust, and moisture, ensuring robust performance, maintenance-free operation, and a long lifespan. Inductive proximity sensors are available in various sizes (from Ø 3 mm to M30) and rectangular designs, optimizing the efficiency and reliability of automation processes.

In addition to standard industrial applications, di-soric offers all-metal versions, pressure-resistant sensors up to 500 bar, and models with extended 3x or 4x switching distances. Sensors with analog outputs are also available for precise measurement in production or testing processes. Below are key series and their special features:
