Contrinex’s range of high-performance inductive sensors with many benefits has been further enhanced by its smart sensors, which combine a microcontroller with the sensor’s ASIC to add on-board processing to “measure, monitor, configure and predict”. They offer machine builders the ability to program a customised sensor for their application, without the cost and time delay associated with ordering low-volume custom parts.
A new product brochure uses application examples to explain how the sensors can be used to provide: multi-mode high-resolution measurement; embedded predictive-maintenance features; user-defined memory; user-configurable outputs; direct device-to-device communication; dual-channel outputs; switching delay, stretch and one-shot; temperature; BITE; and counters.
Contrinex offers designers the freedom to implement multiple sensing modes in a single sensor, offering exceptional versatility and simplified integration. These smart sensors can supercharge your IoT strategy and enjoy all the advantages of the industry-standard IO-Link interface, plus the option of high-speed sensor-based decision-making using SIO (standard IO mode).
