PD100
Position
and Missing Part Detector
Prime’s
Model PD100 Single Probe Position Detector
is a unique detector that solves many
application problems that proximity
sensors are unable to accomplish.
1.Unlike
a proximity sensor, it detects ferrous
metal through any metal in the foreground.
It’s output responds only when metal
is at or over the calibrated thickness,
up to 1.5 mm (.060” ) maximum.
2.
It is used to monitor the return position
of a ferrous metal part to within .025
mm (.001”) The metal must effect a magnetic
field.
Maintains
stability up to a maximum temperature
of 90 degrees C.
Remote
sensitivity calibration for harsh locations.

To
calibrate, simply insert the acceptable
metal part in front of the probe, then
push the calibrate button. The detector
automatically sets the accept threshold
at the calibrate value or greater. It’s
form “C” contact relay remains de-energized
if the metal is less than calibrated,
power is lost, or a probe failure is
detected. An additional PNP transistor
output is on when any metal is in proximity.
This output is used to verify a ferrous
metal part is present. The Model PD100
detector has fault detection that immediately
analyzes any problem and operates a
flashing Green and Amber lamp sequence
that directs the operator to the problem
through reference codes.

sensor poles by the thickness of metal.
Maximum thickness is limited by the diameter
of the probe. The chart below provides
