Where it fits and how it behaves

The CK40 housing is square and compact, so it mounts on a flat bracket instead of a threaded barrel, which suits conveyor guides and fixture plates where a drilled thread is not possible. Its distance of 115 mm falls between the M30 barrel head and the larger Q80 head. It is a 4-wire head that connects to a Turck interface module or an RFID controller, and bus-mode variants with a C53 suffix exist separately for TBEN modules.

For commissioning, test with the actual tag type, record the read and write distances in both directions, and verify the data in the controller. Mounting on metal, tag orientation and transport speed change the practical distance considerably compared with the maximum in the datasheet.

Reading the type code before you order

TN is the Turck HF RFID read/write head family; the housing token (Q80, M18, M30) matches the design row (Rectangular, CK40), IOL marks IO-Link versions and EX marks the version with hazardous-area marking. Ident number 7030006 identifies this exact head.

Please check the supply voltage, any hazardous-area approval conditions, the tag type and read/write distance for your application, the interface (IO-Link or 4-wire), and mounting space and metal environment before you place an order. The figures above follow the manufacturer datasheet, and any later datasheet revision from the maker takes precedence.

Because the datasheet for this head lists the read/write distance as a maximum, treat 115 mm as a ceiling reached under ideal tag and alignment conditions rather than a design value. Real distance falls with smaller tags, metal behind the tag, and misalignment, so allow a safety margin when positioning the head. The datasheet also gives IP67 protection, an ambient range of -25 to +70 C and a 4-wire interface, and it shows Turck connector accessories for the S2503 and S2500 families, which should be chosen to match the cable and the interface unit in your installation.

About brand

Turck is the German automation company for sensors, connectivity, fieldbus I/O and interface technology. It grew from Hans Turck's engineering office in Mülheim an der Ruhr: in 1965 a chemical plant ordered an isolation amplifier for intrinsically safe circuits, and the first 20 units were built by his brother Werner Turck in Halver. The family-owned Turck group is still headquartered in Mülheim an der Ruhr, with production in Halver and other sites.

Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier in Muscat. We list Turck sensors and I/O devices for machine builders and maintenance teams in Oman and the GCC.

Milestones

  • 1965: An order from a German chemical plant for an amplifier module starts the business; Werner Turck builds the first 20 units.
  • 1970: Hans Turck KG and Werner Turck KG are registered as separate companies.
  • 1975: Hans Turck KG opens its building in Mülheim an der Ruhr.
  • 1994: Turck Holding combines the two Turck companies under one roof.

Turck product series

Most of the Turck products here are inductive proximity sensors: threaded M12, M18 and M30 barrels in flush (BI) and non-flush (NI) versions, uprated-range (U) sensors, rectangular CP40 and CP80 housings and BIM magnetic-field sensors for detecting pistons in pneumatic cylinders. The type code describes the sensor; in BI5-M18-AP6X-H1141, BI means flush mounting, 5 is the switching distance in mm, AP6X a three-wire PNP output and H1141 the M12 connector.

Turck also makes RU ultrasonic sensors, PS pressure, TS temperature and LS level sensors, FCI inline flow sensors, the CMVT vibration and temperature sensor for condition monitoring over IO-Link, and fieldbus and Ethernet I/O modules and communication components.

Where Turck sensors are used

Position detection on conveyors, packaging machines, presses and robotic cells; level, pressure and temperature monitoring on hydraulic units and process skids; and vibration monitoring on motors, pumps and fans.
