The PMI inductive position measuring technology combines
the robust operation principle of an inductive proximity
switch with the precision of a position measurement and
angular positioning system. With PMI sensors, simple
a
ctuation targets of steel are used to produce a position
or angle-proportionate output signal. In addition to these
a
nalog current and voltage outputs, switching point outputs
can be configured by the user. The PMIs provide functional
flexibility and save installation costs as well as additional
costs for binary sensors.

The inside of the sensor contains a coil array. In passing
a simple steel actuator, the sensor supplies a distanceproportional analog output signal.
Non-contact and inductive
Non-contact position measuring technology is invaluable in machine and plant engineering. The reaction-free
measuring prevents wear and measurement errors. The inductive functional principle has proven itself over
a period of decades in long-term industrial use. It is contamination-resistent and completely maintenance free.

The PMI technology requires moving machine modules for position detection, not resonators or magnets as actuating elements. Because a steel sheet or square steel bar is sufficient as an actuating element, it can be implemented simply as a part of the machine module to be monitored. This increases flexibility in construction and
saves on costs for expensive actuators.

The inductive position sensor combines measuring and switching functions in one device. The travel range of
a machine module or a machine element can be evaluated to determine the position proportional to an analog
value and also discrete positions can be detected and output by a separate logic output switch state. The PMI
combines several functions in a single device that traditionally required three separate sensors. In addition to
reducing the cost of the devices themselves, the cost for mounting and inventory of several devices is also reduced.
