Component Details
MB60-12GM50-E2 is a proximity sensor that is designed to offer high-precision metal detection in industrial automation. It is supplied by Techno Control Corporation, a leading supplier of electrical equipment in Pakistan. This sensor is part of the MB60 series, which is known for its reliability and accuracy in metal detection applications.
The MB60-12GM50-E2 sensor operates on the principle of magnetic induction. It consists of a coil and a magnet, which are housed in a compact and rugged enclosure. When a metal object approaches the sensor, it disrupts the magnetic field, causing a change in the current flowing through the coil. This change is detected by the sensor’s electronics, which generates an output signal.
The sensor has a detection range of up to 12mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. It is also capable of detecting ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including stainless steel, aluminum, and brass. The sensor’s sensitivity can be adjusted using a potentiometer, which allows for fine-tuning of the detection threshold.
The MB60-12GM50-E2 sensor is designed to operate in harsh industrial environments, with a temperature range of -25°C to +85°C. It is also IP67 rated, which means it is protected against dust and water ingress. The sensor’s output signal is compatible with a variety of control systems, including PLCs, HMIs, and SCADA systems.
Application
The MB60-12GM50-E2 sensor is widely used in industrial automation applications where metal detection is required. Some of the common applications include:
1. Packaging and sorting: The sensor is used to detect the presence of metal objects in food, pharmaceutical, and packaging materials. This helps to prevent damage to downstream equipment and ensures product safety.
2. Conveyor systems: The sensor is used to detect the presence of metal objects on conveyor belts, which helps to prevent damage to the belt and downstream equipment.
3. Material handling: The sensor is used to detect the presence of metal objects in bulk materials, such as coal, ore, and grains. This helps to prevent damage to downstream equipment and ensures product quality.
4. Robotics and automation: The sensor is used to detect the presence of metal objects in robotics and automation applications, which helps to prevent damage to the robot and downstream equipment.
Uses
The MB60-12GM50-E2 sensor has a number of uses in industrial automation applications, including:
1. Metal detection: The sensor is used to detect the presence of metal objects in materials and products, which helps to prevent damage to downstream equipment and ensures product safety.
2. Sorting: The sensor is used to sort materials and products based on the presence or absence of metal objects, which helps to ensure product quality and prevent damage to downstream equipment.
3. Inspection: The sensor is used to inspect materials and products for the presence of metal objects, which helps to prevent damage to downstream equipment and ensure product safety.
4. Protection: The sensor is used to protect downstream equipment from damage caused by metal objects, which helps to prevent downtime and maintenance costs.
Maintainance
The MB60-12GM50-E2 sensor is designed to be low maintenance, with a long service life and a simple calibration process. The sensor’s electronics are housed in a rugged enclosure, which protects them from dust, water, and other environmental factors. The sensor’s output signal is compatible with a variety of control systems, which allows for easy integration into existing systems.
To ensure optimal performance, the sensor should be calibrated periodically to ensure accurate metal detection. This can be done using a calibration kit, which is available from Techno Control Corporation. The sensor’s sensitivity can also be adjusted using a potentiometer, which allows for fine-tuning of the detection threshold.
