P&f proximity sensor  

Pepperl+Fuchs is a German multinational enterprise with its headquarters located in Mannheim, Germany. This company focuses on the production of electronic products tailored for fabrication and process automation. Its areas of specialization include sensor manufacturing – such as sensors applied in elevator automatic doors, encoders, AS interfaces, RFID systems, barcode solutions, and explosion protection devices – along with components designed for the automotive industry and plant engineering.

Notably, in 2022, the company achieved a significant milestone as its revenue surpassed €1 billion for the first time.

As of April 2024, Pepperl+Fuchs employed around 6,850 people globally, boasting over 40 foreign subsidiaries spread across six continents. Its manufacturing facilities are situated in various countries, including Germany, the USA, Singapore, Hungary, China, Indonesia, and Vietnam. Additionally, a new US headquarters is set to open in late 2025.

As the inventor of the proximity sensor, Pepperl+Fuchs has continued to further develop and perfect its noncontact, wear-free technology. Having the most experience in the market and a complete portfolio of inductive, capacitive, and magnetic sensors always enables the perfect sensor solution for any application. Using test criteria far beyond the normative requirements, Pepperl+Fuchs sets standards in terms of performance and durability.

Inductive Sensors
Inductive proximity sensors stand as the top choice for most scenarios where precise, non-contact detection of metallic objects is required in machinery or automation equipment. As a trailblazer and market leader, Pepperl+Fuchs delivers cutting-edge, high-quality inductive sensors to cater to the demands of global automation and process control markets. Leveraging our rich experience, strong flexibility, and unwavering customer focus, we consistently provide custom-designed solutions for even the most unique and challenging applications.

Capacitive sensor
Capacitive proximity sensors serve as the ideal solution for detecting nonmetallic objects and substances. Be it liquids, granules, paper, or wood, they reliably keep track of fill levels throughout production processes. Pepperl+Fuchs offers specialized variants, including rugged sensors housed in stainless steel or chemically resistant materials, which ensure exceptional reliability and a long service life.

Magnetic field sensor

When the technology of inductive sensors hits its limits, magnetic field sensors emerge as a highly versatile alternative. They can reliably detect magnetic fields through non-magnetizable materials.

Pepperl+Fuchs' range of magnetic field sensors includes cylindrical housing models, which are suitable for traditional magnetic detection applications. Additionally, there is a non-contact piston detection sensor designed for use with steel hydraulic cylinders. These magnetic sensors enable reliable detection of piston magnets and are easy to install, eliminating the need for mounting slots or holes in the cylinder.

Mounting flange
Connectivity and mounting accessories that are perfectly matched enable optimal sensor integration. Pepperl+Fuchs provides a comprehensive range of accessories, which includes all the components needed to create ready-to-install solutions.
