Sensors & Switches

Emerson’s Sensors & Controls technology is designed to provide reliable and accurate monitoring and control of various aspects of applications in different industries. These technologies are essential for ensuring precision, efficiency, and safety in critical processes. ASCO, AVENTICS, and TopWorx are some of the brands under Emerson that offer a range of sensor and control products and solutions. These technologies are used to measure and control parameters such as proximity, pressure, temperature, and flow in processes that are either electronically or pneumatically actuated. They are also compatible with various communication protocols, making them easy to integrate into existing systems.

Flow Sensors

Aventics Flow Sensors are devices that are used to measure the volume of air flow in compressed air systems. They may be used to monitor and control the flow of air in a variety of industrial applications, such as fluid handling, process control, and machinery. The inline-air-flow probe Flow Sensors are designed to be installed directly in a pipeline or duct, and is capable of performing accurate measurements of the volume of air flow. It likely uses a sensor element that responds to changes in the flow of air, and may be connected to a controller or other monitoring equipment to display and analyze the data.
Pressure Sensors

Pressure technology solutions include capacitive, piezoresistive and other sensors to provide essential process data in differential, gage and absolute pressure applications. These sensors measure pressure, level, flow and derivatives by physically responding to the changes in process pressure, converting the physical movement into an electrical signal.
Proximity Sensors

Inductive Proximity Sensors provide the right sensor solution for every application, from small handling tasks to universal cylinder functionality.
Valve Indication

TOPWORX Valve Indication includes a range of valve position indicators and valve controllers designed for industrial applications. These products are designed to provide real-time information on the status of valves, including whether they are open or closed, and their current position. Valve indication is critical in ensuring the safety and efficiency of industrial processes. The TOPWORX Valve Indication includes various products, such as mechanical position indicators, limit switches, valve controllers, and intelligent valve controllers. These products are designed to be highly reliable and durable, with features such as hermetically sealed switch contacts, corrosion-resistant materials, and advanced diagnostic capabilities. Mechanical position indicators provide a visual indication of the position of a valve, allowing operators to see at a glance whether the valve is open or closed. Limit switches are designed to be mounted directly to a valve and provide electrical feedback to a control system, indicating the valve’s position. Valve controllers are designed to automate the operation of valves and include features such as bus networking and local visual indication. Intelligent valve controllers are more advanced and include features such as valve signature analysis, which provides information on the valve’s performance and condition.
Velocity Time Meters

The Aventics Series VTM Velocity Time Meter is a device used to measure the speed and velocity of pneumatic cylinders with magnetic pistons. It can be used to measure the cycle time of pneumatic systems by connecting it to an electric pilot valve and measuring the time it takes for the signal to reach the valve. This device can be used to monitor and optimize the performance of pneumatic systems, helping to improve efficiency and accuracy.
