Telemecanique Sensors

telemecanique sensors for machine and building control

Reliable sensing keeps I/O maps stable and commissioning quick. The telemecanique sensors portfolio covers cylindrical M8/M12/M18/M30 and rectangular bodies, cabled or M12 A-coded connectors, with PNP or NPN, NO or NC outputs. Typical operating windows are −25…+70 °C, IP67 with IP69K options for washdown. Repeatability sits in the 0.1–0.5 mm band on close-range targets, and LEDs show power and switch state for fast fault tracing. On large rollouts, teams lock part numbers for telemecanique sensors by thread size, sensing mode, and lead type so spares stay unified across floors.

telemecanique proximity sensors types and sizes

Short-range metal/object detection uses shielded and unshielded formats with 2-wire AC/DC or 3-wire DC electronics. M12 variants typically reach 2–4 mm on steel; M18 achieves 5–8 mm; M30 pushes 10–15 mm, extended in “factor-1” versions that keep similar range on aluminium, brass, or stainless. Flush styles resist side interference in tight brackets; non-flush gain range in free air. Teach buttons or remote teach simplify setup inside enclosures. When cabinets vibrate, crews pair telemecanique proximity sensors with serrated washers and thread-locker to hold the set-back dimension.

telemecanique photoelectric sensors for conveyors and doors

Diffuse, retro-reflective (with polariser), and through-beam families cover 50 mm up to 20 m spans. Background suppression rejects shiny floors; retro-reflective solves mixed packaging with a single reflector; through-beam is chosen for dusty bays thanks to high excess gain. Timers handle on-delay/off-delay for debounce; light/dark operate is switchable. For quick alignment on long lanes, a visible red spot helps installers trim brackets before tightening. In retail back-of-house and car-park barriers, using telemecanique photoelectric sensors with IP67 lenses and heated reflectors avoids winter false trips.

telemecanique inductive sensors in harsh zones

Where chips, oil, or coolant are present, stainless 316L housings and flush faces survive abrasion. 4-wire models give complementary outputs for flexible logic; high-pressure face variants tolerate 80–100 bar near hydraulic blocks. Factor-1 electronics keep detection distance consistent across metals, useful on mixed fasteners and machine frames. Shield terminations short and direct reduce noise pickup from VFDs. Maintenance teams index telemecanique inductive sensors by range class and body length so swaps don’t alter clamp or cam positions.

telemecanique automation sensors integration with PLCs

IO-Link versions expose distance, quality, and counters, cutting debug time and enabling remote teach. Discrete models keep wiring simple: brown 24 V, blue 0 V, black load, white auxiliary on 4-wire types. PNP sink/source is selected to match PLC inputs; debounce inside the card can be disabled when sensors already provide timing. For uniform diagnostics, planners map tag names and scaling once, then clone across cabinets that rely on telemecanique automation sensors to detect presence, position, or jam events.

telemecanique detection devices mounting and wiring

Right-angle brackets, swivel balls, and slotted rails cover most fixture geometries. Torque guidance is typically 1.5–4.0 Nm for M12/M18 nuts; over-tightening deforms housings and drifts set points. PUR cables are preferred for drag chains; PVC is fine in static runs. Keep separation from power conductors and cross at 90° when routes must intersect. For long chains, use M12 connectors with positive latches and route returns on the same harness to limit loop area. Commissioning sheets list telemecanique detection devices with bracket ID, offset, and teach values to keep night-shift swaps repeatable.

telemecanique measurement sensors for process values

Analogue families cover 0–10 V, 4–20 mA, and IO-Link, with options for distance, angle, and miniature encoders. Resolution typically reaches 12–14 bit; update times 1–5 ms fit conveyor tracking and diverter control. Temperature drift is minimised by internal compensation; ratiometric outputs stabilise against supply variation. In AHUs and lifts, teams pair telemecanique measurement sensors with shielded cabling and grounded backplates to preserve low-level signal integrity over long trunks.

Product range and series overview

• Cylindrical and rectangular bodies with flush/non-flush options, cabled or M12 connectorised, 2-wire AC/DC and 3-/4-wire DC logic.
• Photoelectric modes including diffuse with background suppression, polarised retro-reflective, and through-beam; accessories such as reflectors, fiber heads, and heater kits.
• IO-Link variants providing parameter storage, event logs, and quality metrics; classic discrete models for cost-sensitive zones.
• Mounting kits with skyline-low brackets, mirror plates, and protective guards that preserve sensing windows in cramped machines.

Technical characteristics and engineering notes

Select sensing mode by surface and distance; keep 3–5× mechanical clearance beyond rated range to account for temperature and target variance. For inductive models on aluminium or brass without factor-1, apply reduction factors from datasheets and re-teach after bracket changes. Use complementary outputs where PLC logic toggles by recipe. In photoelectric lanes, polarised retro-reflective avoids seeing mirror-finish foil; through-beam wins on dusty or steam-prone lines. Plan brown/blue loop resistance on long runs so 24 V at the sensor remains within tolerance under load.

Applications and compatibility

Office conveyors and mailrooms need compact diffuse heads for cartons; façades and gates rely on retro-reflective pairs with heated optics; machining cells use stainless inductive bodies near coolant; warehouse shuttles benefit from IO-Link diagnostics for predictive maintenance. Sensors align with TE/Telemecanique terminals and relay rows; pitch, label windows, and M16/M20/M25 gland threads stay consistent across doors and rails.

Selection criteria for B2B buyers

• Fix the target and motion first, then choose inductive vs photoelectric; confirm background and colour influence.
• Lock thread size, body length, connector type, and output logic early to stabilise harnesses and PLC cards.
• Document bracket torque, standoff, and teach values on the drawing; keep spares identical to avoid re-teaching on the line
• For hygiene or coastal air, prefer 316L housings, IP69K, and PUR cables; add guards where trolleys or crates can strike sensors.

Advantages of working with Bankoflamps

Our support follows commissioning, not catalogue cycles. We return quotes with EAN and MPN in about an hour, show live EU stock before crews are booked, and keep price files downloadable with validity windows you can plan around. Established clients work with post-payment up to 30 days. We room-bundle cartons and consolidate partials to cut freight. A dedicated manager checks body size, logic type, connector standard, bracket geometry, and cable jackets against your drawings so sensors arrive site-ready across France, the Baltics, Germany, Spain, Italy, Belgium, and the Netherlands.
