Flexible stainless steel sensor mounting system with Ecolab approval
Balluff has expanded their product range for flexible and simple installation with a rugged system made of all stainless steel and with Ecolab approval. This makes the system ideal for washdown applications. The components of the new system are compatible with the existing BMS Ø 12 mm mounting system, so that its metal and plastic variations can be used with no restrictions.

Mounting system easy to retrofit and integrate into machines and production lines
To ensure that the stainless steel fastening elements can be optimally integrated into machines and production lines they are available in five lengths from 150 to 800 mm. The two base holders made of stainless steel fit nearly any manufacturer’s mounting profiles and fully cover the slot.
Together with the corresponding slot nuts these base holders then always sit symmetrically and solidly in the slot.
Here’s what the kit system includes:
- Support rods
- Base holders
- Cross-connectors
- Clamps/sensor holders for all common form factors.
This means the mounting system is also simple to retrofit.
Time and money saving with the kit system for any sensor or actuator

The sensor mounting system is a variable kit system that help to make the job much easier, since now it is possible fasten and flexibly adjust any sensor or actuator in the field without special tools and at the last minute when necessary. More complicated and combined constructions can be quickly implemented. This saves much time and money compared with ‘home-built’ solutions. It also reduces expensive delays caused by late machine acceptance.
The final user has an easy time finding new additional components when needed: the Product Finder on the Balluff web site (www.balluff.de) is a source for data sheets, construction drawings, part numbers and product images for virtually any component. 3D data eliminate the need for creating your own, costly construction drawings.
