Ferromagnetic parts which differ strongly in their material properties and diameters can thus be detected. A target part has to be located within the so called sensitive area in order to be detected. The internal sensor signal reaches the maximum intensity if the sensitive area is completely covered by the target. Partial coverage is also possible. Sensitive area S = 9 mm Within this area the sensor signal changes when components are connected. Maximum range M = 13 mm In case of complete coverage of the sensitive area the maximum signal intensity is achieved. 1 / 4 Hans Turck GmbH & Co.KG ñ D-45472 Mülheim an der Ruhr ñ Witzlebenstraße 7 ñ Tel. 0208 4952-0 ñ Fax 0208 4952-264 ñ more@turck.com ñ www.turck.com ## **Magnetic field sensor For Detection of Ferromagnetic Parts NIMFE-M12/4.6L88-UP6X-H1141** ## **examples of use** The magnetic field sensor is espcially suited for the detection of welding nuts as well as spacer or reinforcing sleeves. The parts have to be made of ferromagnetic material in order to guarantee correct performance. Most applications need center bolts to retain the welding nuts and reinforcing sleeves and thus provide mechanical protection of the sensors. Theses bolts have to be made of non-ferromagnetic material, like stainless steel for example. Center bolts are not available at Turck, as these have to be produced individually and adjusted to the correspondent application. The weld sensor detects targets with diameters between 10 and 12mm easily.

Therefore each sensor has to be conditioned to the operating environment, i.e. to the applied sleeves or protective caps and the target (nut, sleeve etc.) In order to calibrate a sensor, the teach adapter VB2-SP1 made by Turck is needed. ## **Error display** If the output is in switch-on state and the error messages 'overload' i.e. 'short circuit' are signaled, the output is immediately switched off. Within one second the sensor checks if the state of short circuit still remains, if not, the output is switched-on again. The states of 'overload' or 'short circuit' are signaled yellow by the LED with 1 Hz. Each sensor monitors the internal signals and hardware components. The output is switched-off by the following errors: - Interruption of the sensor signal (e.g. by a magnetic field) - Excess temperature (internal device temperature >100°C) - Defective hardware Sensor errors are indicated by alternate flashing green and yellow LEDs. The sensor errors are usually selfresetting, i.e. the sensor changes automatically to the normal operating state, after the error was corrected. After switching on the operating voltage the sensor checks its operating parameters. If errors occur during the checking process, the sensor remains in the error state (green LED blinking). The output cannot be switched-on in this state. A new calibartion with the teach adapter is required.
