Standex Detect - Metal Detection Position Sensors
Metal detection position sensors are designed to detect the presence or movement of ferrous materials such as steel bolts, gears, or plates. Available in reed switch or Hall effect configurations, these sensors offer flexible solutions for proximity and position sensing. Reed-based sensors provide simple, low-power operation, while Hall effect versions offer dynamic, solid-state performance with zero-speed detection and enhanced durability. Ideal for industrial automation, safety systems, and heavy equipment, these sensors are available in various mounting styles and electrical outputs to suit diverse application needs.
More Product Information
Magnetic Float NBR or Nitrile Butadiene Rubber floats have excellent resistance to petroleum-derived liquids such as oil and gasoline and can be used in high temperature applications as well. Magnetic Float PA or Polyamide floats are made of nylon, have a very high strength-to-weight ratio making them shock and abrasion resistant, enduring a pressure of 5 bar (73 PSI or 0.5 MPa). Magnetic Float PP (polypropylene) are rugged, highly resistant to many chemical solvents, bases and acids and have a water absorption of only 0.1%. V2A Floats are made of rust-proof stainless steel and are resistant to high temperatures making them ideal for the Food & Beverage industry among others.

Reliable Break-Before-Make Switching with Form C Reed Technology
Changeover reed switches, also known as Form C or SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) switches, feature three contact leads and operate with a break-before-make switching sequence. This means one contact disconnects before the other connects, ensuring clean signal transitions and reducing the risk of short circuits.
Changeover reed switches are ideal for applications requiring reliable switching between two circuits, such as signal routing, sensor feedback, and control logic.
These switches can be integrated into standard sensors and reed relay assemblies, and custom configurations are available to meet specific design requirements.
- Ultra-long Holdover with improved ePRTC algorithm to provide up to 100 days of holdover within 100ns
- Jamming, spoofing detection
- High Accuracy White Rabbit PTP allowing sub-nanosecond time synchronization achievable through firmware upgrade, no additional hardware required
- 4x 10MHz Low Phase Noise (LPN)
