Magnetic Field Cylinder Sensors from Balluff

June 28, 2012 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

Florence, Ky. – Balluff has expanded their Global line of products to include a broad line of magnetic field cylinder sensors called Global BMF. The Global Line from Balluff is an offering of economically priced general-purpose sensors and accessories for industrial automation. 

Balluff’s BMF magnetic field cylinder sensors are based on non-contact, solid-state sensor technology that is compatible with both reed and Hall Effect magnetic pole orientations, making them the ideal replacement for standard magnetic switches. Electrically rugged, they feature short circuit protection, overload protection, and reverse polarity protection, all backed by Balluff’s exclusive Lifetime Warranty. Improved sensor performance and better reliability results in less downtime and increased productivity.

Balluff’s compact BMF sensors are designed to fit either C-slot or T-slot extrusions and require no additional brackets for mounting. These sensors fit flush into the slot, offering better sensor protection. Flush mounting sensors make installation in space-critical applications easier and less time consuming. In addition, cable clips are included for cleaner cable routing and better strain relief.
