Capacitive Proximity Sensors


Capacitive Proximity Sensors detect changes in the capacitance between the sensing object and the Sensor. As per the name, capacitive proximity sensors operate by noting a change in the capacitance read by the sensor.


Capacitive Proximity Sensors

  • Size : 18mm
  • Sensing Distance : 8mm
  • Output Circuit : PNP (No)
  • Operating Voltage : 12-30VDC
  • Connection Type : Cable Type

The major characteristics of capacitive proximity sensors are as under:

  • They can detect nonmetallic targets.
  • They provide a high switching rate for rapid response in object counting applications.
  • They can detect liquid targets through nonmetallic barriers (glass, plastic, etc.).
