The PROXIMITY SERIES comprises cylindrical capacitive sensors with housing diameters of 6.5 mm, M8, 10 mm, and M12, offering adjustable sensing distances from 0.1 mm to 4 mm and flush or non-flush mounting options. All variants feature stainless steel housings, PTFE sensing faces, IP65 protection, and operate on supply voltages of 11-30 V DC or 12-35 V DC depending on model, with a switching frequency of 100 Hz, maximum output current of 50 mA or 200 mA, and yellow LED output indication. They include polarity reversal and short-circuit protection, and are certified to CE and cULus standards.
Capacitive sensing technology allows for detection of several different target materials from food substances to plastics, oil or glue to fine powders. We manufacture and sell proximity and level detection capacitive sensors that will easily integrate into your existing system, or can be designed for a new application. Our cylindrical capacitive line includes a range of housing diameters, adjustable sensing distance, flush and non-flush mounting options. We offer contact-free proximity detection or level detection of bulk/liquid product directly or through a container wall.
