Dr. E. Horn Distance Sensor IW00016

Distance Sensor Motors and Turbines IW00016

The distance sensor IW00016 from Dr. E. Horn is composed of a metallic housing that contains the sensor components and, in some cases, the electronic components. This design ensures mechanical durability and prevents interference from external circuits.

To achieve a high signal-to-noise ratio the sensor uses different parts, where each measurement task requires a distinct measurement principle, including:

Compatible output levels
Shielded cables
Plug connectors.

Distance Sensor IW00016

The fundamental configuration bears resemblance to the inductive oscillator pulse sensor variant FGL 13/....

However, in contrast to said sensor, alterations in the levels of the oscillator yield an analog output signal ranging from 4 – 20 mA or 0.5 V to 4.5 V, rather than a switching signal.

The output signal exhibits proportionality to the measured distance, specifically within the range of 2 - 6 mm.

This sensor is well-suited for distance measurement in challenging environments and have garnered approvals from classification societies.

FAQ

What is the IW00016 Distance Sensor used for?

The IW00016 is an inductive distance sensor designed for precise measurement of the distance to metal components. It provides an analog output proportional to the measured distance.

What industries typically use the IW00016?

It is commonly used in marine, industrial, and automation applications, where accurate distance measurement is needed for monitoring, control, and safety purposes.

How does the IW00016 differ from a standard inductive sensor?

Unlike traditional inductive sensors that provide on/off switching signals, the IW00016 outputs a continuous analog signal, making it ideal for precise distance monitoring.

Can the sensor operate in harsh environments?

Yes, the sensor is robustly designed with a metal housing to withstand industrial and marine environments. It is also approved by classification societies.

Does the IW00016 require calibration?

No specific calibration is needed under normal conditions, but the sensor should be installed within the specified operating range for accurate results.
