Whether it's in a dairy, brewery, bread factory, or frozen food production line, or even in long-term emulsion rinsing applications, the new generation of Uprox+ inductive sensors can be seamlessly integrated into your production processes. With a focus on meeting diverse industrial demands, these sensors provide a comprehensive and optimized solution that significantly reduces input costs and lowers overall system expenses.
One of the key advantages of the Uprox+ WD series is its exceptional system stability. Designed for harsh environments, the sensor housing is made from materials that resist cleaning agents and disinfectants. Combined with outstanding sealing performance and high electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), the WD series ensures reliable operation even in the most challenging food manufacturing and processing conditions.
In many industries, equipment is frequently exposed to continuous rinsing, which puts immense pressure on field devices. The food and beverage sector is a prime example, where high-temperature (80°C and above) and chemical-based cleaning agents are used under high-pressure conditions. This rigorous process is essential to maintain aseptic and hygienic production standards.
The Uprox+ WD series is specifically designed for use in the food and beverage industry as well as heavy-duty industrial environments like rolling mills. These sensors employ the same multi-coil technology and patented coil arrangement as standard Uprox+ models, along with printed circuit board technology and an advanced ASIC. As a result, they deliver full metal detection (factor 1), long switching distances, excellent EMC characteristics, strong resistance to magnetic interference, and flexible mounting options.
New housing materials such as stainless steel 1.4404 and LCP have been introduced, offering superior resistance to the cleaning agents commonly used in food processing. The suitability of the WD series for food applications has been thoroughly validated by Henkel Ecolab, a trusted third-party laboratory.
Available in various housing styles including M12, M18, and M30, the Uprox+ WD series meets DIN 40050-9 and EN 60529 standards. When paired with the FB series connectors, the sensors achieve IP69K protection, ensuring maximum reliability and compliance with strict hygiene requirements in the food and beverage industry.
For applications where stainless steel is not necessary, the Uprox+ WD sensor can be used with the new Fixcon® connector. This innovative connection system simplifies installation—no need to screw the connector, just plug and play. It offers fast, secure connections and maintains IP69K protection, making it ideal for high-pressure washing environments.
Turck also offers a V4A stainless steel connection module with IP69K protection as an optional accessory. This allows signal collection directly at the field and transmission to the controller via a single-core multi-strand cable, with LED diagnostics for easy troubleshooting.
Key Features:
- High-grade stainless steel construction
- IP68 + IP69K protection class
- Highly resistant to corrosion and common acidic/alkaline cleaners
- Certified by independent lab (Henkel Ecolab)
- Ideal for food and beverage, metallurgy, machine tool centers, hydroelectric gates, and high-pressure washing systems
The Uprox+ WD series is the perfect choice for industries requiring durability, hygiene, and long-term reliability in demanding environments.
