VALVE POSITION DETECTION

Pepperl+Fuchs and ERIKS – a Long-Term Partnership in Valve Position Detection

2

A pioneering spirit and a firm belief in their own inventive powers – these were the assets that the company founders Walter Pepperl and Ludwig Fuchs started out with when they opened their radio repair shop in Mannheim, Germany, in 1945. Their invention of the proximity switch a few years later proved their strength. It was also the starting point in a successful history defined by close customer relationships as well as innovative automation technologies and procedures. Then as now, the focus is directed squarely on the individual requirements of each customer. Whether as a pioneer in electrical explosion protection or as a leading innovator of highly efficient sensors, close communication with customers is what allowed Pepperl+Fuchs to become the leader in automation technology.

With years of experience in the field of sensor applications in the process industry, Pepperl+Fuchs offers complete sensor solutions for the reliable and efficient operation of your process equipment. Specifically developed sensors for process applications provide accurate measurements and valve position feedback to monitor system status, which is necessary in an energy-efficient facility. With products for both linear travel and rotary travel valves, automated and manually actuated, Pepperl+Fuchs’ sensors can be used in both general-purpose and hazardous locations.
