..Peter
Heimlicher is "Entrepreneur of the
..Year
2005"!
| Awarded
annually by Ernst & Young, the eighth Swiss “Entrepreneur
of the Year” award in the category Industry/High-Tech
went to the founder and CEO of Contrinex, Peter Heimlicher.
The
highly prestigious prize is awarded by an independent
jury according to severe selection criteria. Peter Heimlicher,
who was already one of last year’s short-listed
finalists, this year made it all the way to the top,
winning the much sought-after title for himself and
his company.
The
jury was particularly impressed by Peter Heimlicher’s
capacity for strategic thinking, which allowed him to
turn his company from a one-man operation in 1972 to
an international concern with 330 employees worldwide. |

Contrinex now offers miniature inductive proximity switches
with the world's longest operating distance (2.5 mm)
for their size.
These devices are available in diameter 4 mm and M5,
in stainless-steel housings (V2A). They can be recess
mounted. Despite their tiny size, these sensors are
largely compatible with standard devices. A LED and
protections against short-circuit, wire reversal and
induction are built in.
These features result in numerous advantages, e.g. increased
reliability thanks to increased distance from moving
parts and therefore reduced danger of mechanical damage.
Where space is limited, they can replace larger sizes.
In addition, due to the greater mechanical tolerance,
installation is considerably easier. Finally these devices
show best results for parts difficult to detect (small,
narrow, non-ferrous, wires). |

Fully potted optical parts
| Contrinex
now also offers synthetic optical fibers with background
suppression. These devices have a factory adjusted operating
distance of 12 mm and fully potted optical parts.
These new fibers recognize differences of position and
thickness down to 0.1 mm. Thanks to glass-fibers reinforced
PBTP-housings, they are suitable for even rough environments.
The lenses are scratch resistant and easy to clean.
Finally, thanks to the flexible fiber, they feature
a minimum bending radius. |

| These
new all-metal inductive proximity switches by Contrinex
are especially suitable for marine applications, due
to their total resistance to corrosion by sea water.
Moreover they have a high degree of protection (IP 68
+ IP 69K), which makes them suitable for all applications
above and below water, such as on ships and submarines,
in harbor installations, in locks and docks, on offshore
installations and in fish processing. The devices feature
one-piece housings (including sensing face) of corrosion-resistant
stainless steel (V4A / AISI 316L / DIN 1.4435). Furthermore
they offer long operating distances on steel and aluminum.
The cable version is completely pressure resistant to
a depth of 600 m / 60 bar (M18). The connection is by
means of a corrosion-resistant TPE-S cable or connector
S12. |

Contrinex
inductive sensors for the food and pharmaceutical
industries in one-piece stainless-steel housings are
distinguished by their long operating distances (for
example, M18 non-embeddable: 20 mm) and high degree
of impermeability (IP 68 + IP 69K). In addition, thanks
to their one-piece housings of food-safe stainless
steel (V4A / AISI 316L / DIN 1.4435), they are highly
resistant to corrosion by cleaning and disinfecting
agents, as well as by organic acids. As a result,
they comfortably withstand the routine high-pressure-jet
cleaning processes commonly used in the food industry.
In addition, the cable execution is fully pressure-resistant
up to 80 bar / 1,150 psi (M12), 60 bar / 850 psi (M18)
and 40 bar / 600 psi (M30) as well as being vacuum-resistant,
and is thus suitable for practically all processes
likely to be met in the food industry. The devices,
designed for operating temperatures from -25 to +85°C
(-13 to 185 °F), are connected via food-safe TPE-S
cables or S12 connectors.
They are especially designed for use in problem areas,
such as the manufacture of dairy products, the canning
industry, beverage manufacturing and breweries, as
well as slaughterhouses, meat processing and animal
farming (feeding and free-range installations), or
on food-processing machines. |

..Inductive
high-temperature
..proximity
switches
..Sizes
M8 to M50 in stainless-steel housings
..
For permanent operating temperatures of
..
up to 230°C (440°F)
Contrinex
now offers a series of embeddable and non-embeddable
high-temperature switches in sizes M8 to M50. The
devices have operating distances from 2 to 25 mm,
and are respectively suitable for applications up
to 140°C (280°F), 150°C (300°F), 180°C
(350°F) and 230°C (440°F).
The executions for 140°C (280°F), 150°C
(300°F) and 180°C (350°F) feature built-in
amplifiers. Connection by means of a 2 m silicone
or Teflon cable is standard. Other cable lengths and
types are available on request.
For 230°C (440°F) types, the amplifiers are
built into an M12 stainless-steel housing, which is
connected by means of a standard 3 m Teflon cable,
and thus removed from the hot area. This cable carries
a pure DC, rather than a high-frequency signal, and
its length can thus be chosen freely, without having
a negative influence on the switching behavior of
the device, and without the need for adjustment. Connection
of the amplifier is by means of a 2 m PUR cable.
All the usual protection functions, such as short-circuit,
overload and voltage-reversal protection are built
in. Furthermore, the devices feature good protection
against environmental influences (IP 67).
