The S3216R is an inductive ring sensor designed to detect metallic objects passing through its ring opening, suitable for counting and automation in manufacturing systems. It features a plastic housing with IP65 protection against dust and water jets, operates on a 10-30 Vdc supply, and provides NPN or PNP, NO+NC outputs via a connector (Type C). The sensor includes a sensitivity adjustment, a 100 ms delay ON/OFF switch, short circuit and reverse polarity protection, and an operating frequency of 600-800 Hz for its 22 mm bore size. It has a maximum switching current of 200 mA, a voltage drop under 1.8 Vdc, and a repeatability of less than 0.3 mm. The operating temperature range is -25 to +70°C. Flush mounting is not supported.
Features:
In inductive ring sensors, the sensing area is located inside the ring. These sensors are designed to detect metallic masses entering or passing through the ring. They are ideal for sensing, counting and checking of small metal parts such as: screws, washers, nuts etc. and the control, detection, position, inspection and automation of machine tools & manufacturing systems.
They operate on a 10-30 Vdc supply and offer NPN or PNP, NO+NC outputs. They are sealed in a rugged, plastic housing with a protection degree of IP 65. All versions have short circuit and reverse polarity protection and are available in either prewired cable or connector output connection. Each unit is supplied with a sensitivity adjustment and a delay ON/OFF switch that fixes the output pulse for 100mS. This makes them ideal for detection of fast moving small metal objects. Special version NAMUR output is available.
The operating distance of the sensor depends on the actuator shape and size and is strictly linked to the nature of the metal. For minimum target size, see Table 1.
