What Are The Different DC Outputs For Turck Sensors?
TURCK 3/14/2018
Two-, three-, and four-wire proximity sensors contain a transistor oscillator and a snap-action amplifier. This provides exceedingly high accuracy to a set switching point, even with very slowly approaching targets. Switching characteristics are unaffected by supply voltage fluctuations within the specified limits. Read more for details on Turck Sensor DC outputs.

The Multiprotocol Ethernet concept is a technology pioneered by Turck to simplify Industrial Ethernet. Through an innovative approach to the operation of the station at the microprocessor level, Turck can deploy multiple Industrial Ethernet protocols in the same device.

Turck has pioneered the design and development of inductive proximity sensors that not only survive such environments, but also remain fully operative. Read more for details.
Factor 1 sensors (also known as Turck Uprox sensors) are sensors that have no reduction factor for different metallic compositions. This allows them to sense all metal targets at the same distance. Read this reference for more characteristics of Turck's Uprox family of sensors.

Twisted pair technology is made up of a series of two conductor pairs from the same circuit twisted together with the purpose of canceling electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Absolute pressure uses a reference to a perfect vacuum. This type of pressure reference is the gauge pressure of the media, in addition to the pressure of the atmosphere.
Bonded pair cable is designed to not separate at the twist, thus preventing the separation of pairs. During installation, bonded pair cable reliably holds the twist of the pairs together to ensure they do not separate or fray at the ends. This allows for sufficient termination at the ends.
Differential pressure can be a little more complex than gauge or absolute, but is simply measuring the difference between two medias.
Gauge pressure uses a reference to the atmosphere around the sensor. Because the sensing element has a deflection due to a pressure change, a reference point is needed to know exactly what pressure is being measured.
Sealed pressure uses a pre-determined reference point, not necessarily vacuum. This allows for pressure measurement in locations that will vary with atmospheric changes.
Embeddable sensor construction includes a metal band that surrounds the ferrite core and coil arrangement. This helps to "bundle" or direct the electro-magnetic field to the front of the sensor. Non-Embeddable sensors do not have this metal band; therefore, they have a longer operating distance but are side sensitive. Read more to view a diagram showing the difference.
