Capacitive Proximity Sensor Minds The Budget

Feb. 25, 2011
Described as an economical line of capacitive proximity sensors suiting object and level detection applications, the Global.CProx family includes a wide array of tubular M12, M18, and M30 sensors available with either M12 connectors or pre-wired cables.

Described as an economical line of capacitive proximity sensors suiting object and level detection applications, the Global.CProx family includes a wide array of tubular M12, M18, and M30 sensors available with either M12 connectors or pre-wired cables. The sensors offer reverse polarity and short circuit protection with enhanced EMC protection. Flush-mount versions can detect objects up to 15 mm away, regardless of color, texture, or material. Non-flush mount versions provide level detection of bulk material or liquids either directly or through a plastic or glass container wall with sensing distances up to 25 mm. Shared features include stainless steel or plastic housings, PNP and NPN versions with normally open or normally closed outputs, and green power-on and yellow output LEDs. BALLUFF INC., Florence, KY.
