The eddyNCDT 3060 inductive measurement system is based on eddy currents and enables fast, precise displacement measurements. The sensors are resistant to harsh industrial environments including dirt, oil, pressure and fluctuating temperatures. In contrast to conventional inductive sensors, displacement sensors based on eddy currents stand out due to their high accuracy, bandwidth and temperature stability. Furthermore, this measuring principle enables measurements on ferro- or non-ferromagnetic objects. The compact controller design as well as the fieldbus connection make the measuring system suitable for integration into machines and systems.

Inductive displacement measurement based on eddy currents
Non-contact, inductive displacement sensors from Micro-Epsilon operate according to the eddy current measuring principle. Unlike conventional, inductive displacement sensors, they measure position, displacement and distance with high accuracy, frequency response and temperature stability on ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic materials. Due to their immunity to oil, dirt, pressure and temperature, these inductive eddy current sensors are primarily used in industrial environments.

Performance and universality for industrial use
The eddyNCDT 3060 is a new, powerful eddy current measuring system for fast, high precision displacement measurements. The system comprises a compact controller, a sensor and an integrated cable and is factory-calibrated for either ferromagnetic or non-ferromagnetic materials. With more than 400 compatible sensor models, ease of use and smart signal processing, the eddyNCDT 3060 defines a new performance class in inductive displacement measurement.

Ideal for integration into plant and machinery
As sensor and controller are temperature-compensated, a high measurement accuracy can be achieved even in fluctuating temperatures. The sensors are designed for ambient temperatures up to a maximum of +200 °C and an ambient pressure up to 20 bar. The compact controller design as well as the fieldbus connection make the measuring system ideal for integration into plant and machinery.

New benchmark in controller technology
The industrial-grade M12 Ethernet interface offers a modern fieldbus connection. Configurable analog outputs enable to output the measured values as voltage or current. When connecting a PC via the Ethernet interface, a modern web interface can be accessed without any further installation and enables the software setting of sensor and controller.

The DT3061 controller provides enhanced features such as 5-point calibration, setting of switching and temperature outputs, as well as storage of multiple characteristic curves. If two or more systems operate next to one another, there is no need for synchronization. For operating several systems, a new frequency separation is provided, which enables to operate these systems in parallel without influencing one another.
