Valve position sensors

What are Valve Position Sensors?

SCMA has been officially appointed as the sole authorized distributor of ifm in Thailand. 

Valve position sensors are devices that detect the position of a valve or check its open and closed status. They typically contain two sensors to indicate the valve's state, commonly used in food and beverage industries.

Types of Valve Position Sensors

• Magnetic Sensors - Use magnets to indicate position, suitable for humid or high-temperature environments.
• Optical Sensors - Utilize light to detect valve movement or position changes, ideal for clean or dry conditions.
• Potentiometric Sensors - Measure the exact position of a valve using resistance, providing detailed data but with lower durability compared to other types.
• Inductive Sensors - Detect valve positions through electromagnetic induction, commonly used in high-vibration environments or where robustness is required.
