Capacitive sensor system for 3 torch cutting applications for Oxy-Fuel machines

The IHT 6525-1-100 capacitive plate sensor system allows non-contact and accurate cutting when using Oxy-Fuel cutting machines fitted with three torches and integrated torch lifters and offers a high quality dry cut. The plate sensor measures the clearance to a metallic workpiece using a capacitive measurement. It can also be used in conjunction with the well proven IHT CSC 500 sensor system.


Process: Oxy-Fuel


Advantages

• Automatic height sensing when cutting with three torches
• Non-contact and precise clearance control
• Clearance remote control
• Works with almost all torch lifters with ± 10 V control inputs

Features

• Optional sensor cooling using compressed air
• Output signal ±10 V (and inverted)
• Output signal IN POSITION, ready for ignition
• Integrated collision protection. When the plate sensor
  touches the workpiece, an automatic vertical movement protects the torch
• Built-in operation monitoring
