Published over 15 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Gas detection.

Inductive proximity switches from EGE’s (Germany) IDT series are designed for a wide temperature range: they withstand ambient temperatures between -25 and +120 °C. The sensors are IP67-protected and suitable for use e.g. in rugged industrial environments. They are available in three versions with 80, 105 and 160 mm diameters and maximum switching distances of 50, 80 and 110 mm. Especially resistant to electromagnetic interferences, the devices ensure opti-mal reliability. They are operated with 10...55 V DC or 20...250 V AC. Additionally, EGE develops and implements individual, application-specific sensor solutions for customers at short notice.

Moreover, EGE provides the IDH 080 sensor series for maximum ambient temperatures of +250 °C. These sensors feature a high-temperature plug connection that allows users to quickly and easily install a replacement sensor head in case of damage without having to replace the sensor cable. Their electronics are housed separately in a pluggable cable amplifier. The units are connected via a metal armored cable.
