SlagMaster™ coating dramatically increases sensor life in resistance welding and other high temperature applications.

Balluff extends sensor life in welding applications with SlagMaster™ technology. This coating is applied to the face of inductive proximity sensors and protects the sensor's performance from degradation, allowing them to resist weld slag buildup, high heat, and mechanical damage.

The following proximity sensors are available with SlagMaster™ coating:

• NEW! High Temperature sensors resist high ambient temperatures up to +120C° (+248°F). More

• Weld Field Immune (WFI) sensors are not influenced by strong magnetic fields thus eliminating false switching (triggering).  WFI sensors

• Factor 1 sensors sense all metals at the same distance and are also weld field immune. Factor 1 sensors
