Contrinex’s Inductive sensors and RFID systems are exceptional, and their high-temperature versions could be described as ‘Hot stuff’. The Inductive sensors can operate to 230°C and the RFID transponders to 250°C - Find out more at www.tiny.cc/CTX

HIGH TEMPERATURE INDUCTIVE SENSORS up to 230°C

Exceptional working conditions demand uncompromising performance, and Contrinex’s EXTRA and HIGH TEMPERATURE Inductive sensors excel in sizes ranging from M8 to M50. These sensors are ideal for the harshest environments, including automotive paint shops, metal-treatment plants and glass manufacturing, combining high accuracy with world-class reliability.

The EXTRA TEMPERATURE inductive sensors are designed for continuous operation at temperatures up to 120°C - https://www.contrinex.com/product_range/inductive-extra-temperature/

Industrial processes often generate heat, resulting in temperatures that would damage a standard sensor. The stainless-steel construction and robust electronics of Contrinex EXTRA TEMPERATURE inductive sensors ensure reliable, accurate operation and minimal downtime in the most demanding environments.

HIGH TEMPERATURE RFID TRANSPONDER TAGS up to 250°C

Designed for environments up to 180 or 250°C, HIGH TEMPERATURE RFID tags offer exceptional longevity and a thermal cycling reliability of 1000 hours (or 1000 cycles).

Passive tags from the HIGH TEMPERATURE RFID family are ideal for use in paint-shops and other high temperature environments. The tags are insensitive to dirt and their housings have an IP68 & IP69K enclosure rating. HF (High Frequency - 13.56 MHZ) tags are fully ISO/IEC 15693-compliant, whilst the LF (Low Frequency - 31.25 kHz) tags utilise proprietary data communication. - https://www.contrinex.com/product_range/rfid-high-temperature/

LF HIGH TEMPERATURE, embeddable tags are suitable for the range -40 to +180°C. Thanks to full-metal, stainless-steel (V4A / AISI 316L) housings, they are food safe, corrosion-proof and can withstand aggressive solvents. Tag diameter is 26 mm and, when used with a Basic M30 LF RWM, the maximum read/write distance is 26 mm.

HF HIGH TEMPERATURE tags offer the highest temperature resistance with a range of non-embeddable, silicone-free LCP types for temperatures from -25 to +250°C. Based on EEPROM or FRAM technology, memory size ranges from 128 Bytes to 2048 Bytes. Tag diameter is 50 mm and, when used with a Basic M30 HF RWM, the maximum read/write distance is 60 mm. Life expectancy is exceptionally long, even under intense read/write and temperature cycling

For temperatures in the range -25 to +180°C, a PPS type is also available. With a diameter of 26 mm, this HF tag is suitable for embeddable mounting in metal. The maximum read/write distance with a Basic M30 RWM is 31 mm.
