Pepperl+Fuchs Sensor Types in Our Catalog
Our industrial sensors catalog features key product lines from Pepperl+Fuchs:
- Vibrating level switches (LVL series) — for liquid level monitoring with density from 0.5 g/cm³. Designed for tanks, pipelines, and process vessels. LVL-A5 and LVL-A7 models provide reliable operation in challenging conditions.
- Ultrasonic level sensors (3RG6 series) — non-contact level measurement up to 2000 mm range. An ideal solution for aggressive media where contact with the measured substance is undesirable.
- Photoelectric sensors (MLV series) — optical sensors with detection range up to 1300 mm for production line automation, conveyors, and packaging equipment.
Pepperl+Fuchs Advantages
Pepperl+Fuchs sensors stand out from competitors due to several key factors:
- Explosion protection — the company pioneered intrinsic safety barrier technology, which is critical for Ex zones.
- Wide operating range — IP65–IP69K protection, operating temperature from -40°C to +85°C.
- Standardization — IO-Link, HART, and AS-Interface protocol support for seamless integration into modern Industry 4.0 systems.
- Technical documentation — a PDF datasheet with complete specifications is available for each model.
To select the right sensor for your specific application, we also recommend reviewing products from other leading brands: Endress+Hauser, Siemens, and Sick. The full list of manufacturers is available in the industrial sensors section.
