Balluff is extending its range of sensors for media-contacting temperature detection, in hydraulic power units. A new temperature sensor with display, a temperature transmitter as well as a PT1000 sensor are now available. The version without a display is particularly compact and vibration-resistant, whereas the versions with the turnable and highly readable display allow high operating convenience and flexible installation.
Depending on the selected version, the BFT sensors offer PNP switching outputs, analog signals 0...10V /4...20mA or work as a PT1000 sensor. They are easy to install by threading into the process applying a standard process connection with G and NPT threads. Integrating them only needs a four-pin M12 plug on the sensor.
Constant monitoring of process media on machines and equipment contributes considerably to process security. Values that need to be maintained are pressure, level and temperature. The BFT temperature sensors stand out when it comes to monitoring the lubricants, cooling water and compressed air, making them perfect for a mixture of applications.
