Industrial and Commercial Sensors FAQ

What are the accuracy specifications for your industrial and commercial sensors?

Our industrial and commercial sensors are designed to provide high accuracy, with specifications varying by sensor type and brand.

Proximity Sensors – The typical accuracy is ±15% of the standard sensing distance

Photoelectric Sensors – Typically ±0.1% to ±0.2% of the sensing distance.

Temperature Sensors – within ±0.5°C to ±2.0°C, depending on the sensor type and temperature range.

Flow Sensors – ±1.5% to ±2% of full-scale flow rate.

Pressure Sensors – Typically ±1% to ±2% of the full-scale measurement.

Can your industrial and commercial sensors withstand harsh environments?

Yes, our sensors are built to withstand harsh industrial environments. For instance, Honeywell’s temperature sensors are constructed with robust materials that resist extreme temperatures, moisture, and chemical exposure, ensuring long-lasting performance even in tough conditions.

Are your industrial and commercial sensors compatible with existing equipment?

Our sensors are designed for broad compatibility with existing systems. Siemens and Johnson Controls offer sensors that integrate seamlessly with most industrial automation systems, minimizing downtime and ensuring easy installation.

• Standard communication protocols (IO-Link, EtherNet/IP, Modbus, analog, NPN/PNP) ensure broad compatibility with PLCs, SCADA systems, and control systems.
• Power supply options (DC and AC) fit standard industrial environments.
• Mechanical compatibility with standard housing sizes and mounting options allows easy replacement or upgrade.
• Integration with PLCs and control systems from multiple vendors, ensuring seamless operation.
• Environmental durability ensures long-term compatibility in harsh conditions.
• Industry 4.0 and predictive maintenance compatibility enhances automation capabilities and future-proofs existing systems.

In summary, TCI’s sensors are highly adaptable and compatible with a wide range of existing equipment, making them easy to integrate into both legacy and modern automation systems without significant reconfiguration or modification.
