Sensors are the sensory organs of any automated system, and at Electric Automation Network we supply a comprehensive portfolio from Eaton, covering capacitive, inductive, and photoelectric technologies. These devices are engineered for precision in detecting or measuring physical parameters such as proximity, presence, level, or distance. Our inductive sensors, known for their robustness and practicality, are available in five distinct series with various housing designs and sensing ranges, typically operating at nominal voltages of 10-30 VDC or 20-250 VAC. Photoelectric sensors in our range include through-beam, retro-reflective, and diffuse types, offering detection distances from a few centimeters up to several meters, with options for background suppression. Capacitive sensors are specifically designed to detect non-metallic objects, including liquids, powders, and granular materials, making them ideal for level detection in challenging environments.
The applications for Eaton sensors span across industrial automation, particularly in machinery manufacturing, food processing, and packaging technology. They are commonly integrated into conveyor systems, assembly lines, and material handling equipment. In the food and beverage industry, sensors with high ingress protection ratings (IP67 or IP69K) are used for washdown environments. Packaging machinery relies on photoelectric sensors for precise object detection and positioning, while inductive sensors are standard in metalworking and automotive production lines for end-stop detection and part presence verification.
Our catalog includes several key subcategories and article codes. For inductive sensors, the series include the IMR, IME, and IMB families, with codes like EAM-IMR-12-24-10 or EAM-IME-18-30-10, where the numbers often indicate housing diameter (e.g., 12 mm, 18 mm) and sensing range (e.g., 10 mm). Photoelectric sensors are grouped under the EAM-PE series, such as EAM-PE-TB-2M (through-beam, 2-meter range) or EAM-PE-RR-1M (retro-reflective, 1-meter range). Capacitive sensors are found in the EAM-CS series, with codes like EAM-CS-30-15, where 30 denotes the housing diameter and 15 the sensing range in millimeters. These codes follow a logical structure: prefix EAM (Eaton Automation Module), sensor type (IMR, PE, CS), housing size, and key performance parameter.
