Introduction

SURAGUS offers several sensor geometries with the same functionalities. The different types are dedicated to address given space requirements. Sensor S and XS have a small footprint but require more height. This is often used for measurements between rollers and in tight productions lines. Sensor M requires less height and is often used when there are no size restrictions. The Semi-Vac sensor is a sensor type where one part of the sensor is inside of the vacuum and one side is outside of the vacuum. This has advantages for high vacuum applications. All sensor options are described in more detail below.

EddyCus® Sensor S

The S Sensor (S for small) is the most popular transmission sensor type at SURAGUS. Its dimensions are 34 x 48 x 117 (WLH) and it fits into narrow spaces between rollers or other geometries within the integration area. There are two type of cord exits (top and side) which support a neat integration and optimal wiring. SURAGUS offers two types of mounting brackets that enable various types of mountings (top, side …) and facilitate an easy sensor height adaption. This sensor is available for non-vacuo or vacuo applications.

Integration Examples

EddyCus® Sensor M

The Sensor M is requires less vertical space compared with the S sensor and is often used for spaces with low space below and above the integration area. This sensor is available for non-vacuo or vacuo applications. This housing type is available for reflective and transmission mode setups. The probe size can be adjusted to cater coil sizes from 1 to 100 mm.

EddyCus® Sensor XXS

The Sensor XXS is the smallest transmission sensor solution dedicated for measurement environments with little space. The sensor has an diameter of 12 mm only and a height of 50 mm. This sensor is available for non-vacuo or vacuo applications. This housing type is available for reflective and transmission mode setups. This sensor is also available as a high temperature version. This sensor is typically applied when sensor S or sensor M do not fit or the sensors need to cope with high temperatures.

Integration Examples

EddyCus® Sensor SemiVac

The Sensor SemiVac is suitable for vacuum tools with limited space requirements. It also minimizes the volume of and components in the vacuum. There are several versions available. The shown version measures through a KF40. Other options measure through PEAK or Glass windows. Please consult with the SURAGUS team. This sensor is available for transmission mode setups.
