## **Functional principle**
Inductive sensors detect metal objects contactless and wear-free. Due to the patented multi-coil system, _uprox_ ® _+_ sensors have distinct advantages over conventional sensors. They excel in largest switching distances, maximum flexibility and operational reliability as well as efficient standardization.
