Ferrous Metal Detector |

A Ferrous Metal Detector is a magnetic proximity sensor that detects the proximity of large steel objects. How does a metal detection sensor work? First, mount the Hall Effect sensor to a fixed surface. Then set the air gap with the provided lock nuts. Finally, when the ferrous metal moves into target range, the sensor detects the magnetic field and turns ON, producing a digital output.

Our line of Hall Effect proximity sensors will detect a large magnetic field gap. Even sensing through aluminum targets. The shape, size, and ferrous content determine the detection gap. Therefore, we offer a custom programmed target detection gap at a defined distance, ensuring precise and repeatable sensing operation. 

Also, ferrous metal detector series include no wearing parts, true zero speed detection, and internal hysteresis. Modify, enhance, or update all of our Hall Effect sensors with our modular features and functionality. Start by selecting a housing in aluminum, stainless-steel, plastic, threaded, flange mount, and customer specific. Need a different sensor functionality? Then choose some options like NPN, PNP, TTL, etc. Furthermore, customize your connectivity with Deutch, Amphenol and other brand connectors. Or select free-end wires and pigtails, including any length option.

MFM7-275VPD-RGCD4 Hall Effect Metal Detection Sensor

The MFM7-275VPD-RGCD4 Hall Effect Metal Detection Sensor is a digital proximity sensor. “DP” type Hall Effect Sensors are digital proximity sensors that detect large steel or ferrous targets.  The programmed detection gap is set to 0.375″ which is dependent upon the shape, size, and ferrous content. The Proximity Sensor turns on when the ferrous metal is detected, producing a low digital output. Conversely, when the ferrous metal moves outside the detection gap, the sensor turns off producing a high digital output. Use the provided lock nuts to set the air gap from the target.

The MFM7-275VPD-RGCD4 Sensor has a regulated input and 0-5 V digital output.  Furthermore, the sensor is potted in a plastic flange mount housing with Deutsch DT04 4-pin connector with 5″ 20 AWG XLPE wire.

S12H-275VPD-RGCB2 Hall Effect Metal Detection Sensor

The S12H-275VPA-RGCB2 Hall Effect Metal Detection Sensor is an analog proximity sensor. “AP” type Hall Effect Sensors are analog proximity sensors that detect large steel or ferrous targets.  The target detection gap is dependent upon the shape, size, and ferrous content. The Proximity Sensor goes from 0.5 V (analog output increases) when no ferrous metal is detected to 4.5 V (analog output decreases) when contacting the steel plate. Use the provided lock nuts to set the air gap from the target.

The S12H-275VPA-RGCB2 Sensor uses a regulated input and 0-5 V analog output.  Furthermore, the sensor is potted in a stainless steel M12 cylindrical housing with integrated connector.
