Emerson has introduced the Topworx GO Switch Model 52M, a 0.47 in. (12 mm) proximity sensor designed specifically for applications in outdoor and challenging industrial environments. The sensor is well-suited for material handling, mobile equipment, industrial equipment, and food and beverage processing applications.
The GO Switch 52M is highly durable, does not require power, and operates across a wide temperature range. The sensor is ideal for OEMs desiring reduced maintenance and fewer equipment breakdowns. The GO Switch provides a much more rugged alternative to the inductive proximity sensor and is far more reliable than a reed switch.
The Model 52M incorporates the GO Switch’s unique dry contact proximity sensor technology that uses magnets to control a set of contacts. This technology’s durability and reliability have been proven in over 60 years of service in the process industries.
