Current consumption
Current for the internal supply of 3-wire DC units.
Degree of soiling
Inductive proximity sensors are designed for degree of soiling 3.
Hysteresis
Difference between the switch-on and the switch-off point.
Short-circuit pro-
tection
If autosen sensors are protected against excessive current by means of
a pulsed short-circuit protection, the short-circuit protection may cut in
with incandescent lamps, electronic relays and low resistance loads.
Standard target
Square steel plate with a thickness of 1 mm and a side length identical
to the diameter of the sensing face or 3 x Sn, depending on which value
is greater.
Product standard
IEC 60947-5-2
Repeatability
= Repeat precision
Difference between any two Sr measurements. Max. 10% of Sr.
Switch point drift
Shift in the switch point owing to changes in the ambient temperature.
Switching frequency
Damping with standard target at half Sn. The ratio damped to undamped
(mark to space) = 1 : 2.
