Capacitive Proximity Sensor (1-10 mm)

Unlike inductive proximity switches that are limited to detecting metal objects, capacitive proximity sensors excel in identifying a diverse range of materials, including non-metallic objects with static electricity. This versatility makes them an ideal choice for applications that require precise sensing in various environments.

Operable within a power supply range of 10 to 30V, this sensor boasts an adjustable detection range from 1 to 10mm. An integrated indicator provides real-time feedback on device status, ensuring seamless monitoring and control. The PBT plastic shell encapsulates the sensor, guaranteeing an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance, making it suitable for both outdoor and indoor installations.

With minimal temperature drift and high detection accuracy, the sensor is adept for use in mechanical automation, security systems, and object detection tasks. It is engineered to detect a 20x20x1mm pure iron block as a standard, with detection distance varying based on object size, thickness, and conductivity. The sensor’s functionality enhances with larger, thicker objects that exhibit better conductivity, effectively extending the detection range.
