CA18CLC12BP, Capacitive Proximity Sensors Thermoplastic Polyester Box Models CA, M18, M30, CC, Self-adjusting, CA18CLC12BP, Capacitive proximity sensors with detection distance of 8 mm for recessed metal mounting or 12 mm for non-recessed mounting in M18, 16 mm for recessed metal mounting or 30 mm for non-recessed mounting in M30. Switching points can be changed via the Teach-in function. 3-wire DC output with normally open (NA) and normally closed (NC) selectable function and NPN alarm. Grey polyester case with 2 m of PVC cable or connector M12, CA18CLC12BP, Capacitive sensors can detect almost all materials, in liquid or solid state. They allow to detect metallic and non-metallic objects; however, they are normally used with non-metallic materials in: • Plastic industry Resins, chips or molded products. • Chemical industry Detergents, fertilizers, liquid soaps, corrosive and petrochemical products. • Sawdust wood industry, paper, door and window frames. • Glass and ceramic industry Raw materials, clay or finished products, bottles. • Packaging industry Packaging inspection: level, content, dry substances, fruits and vegetables, dairy products. Materials are detected by their dielectric constant. The larger the object, and the higher its density, the better it is detected. The detection distance of a capacitive sensor refers to a grounded metal plate (ST37). For more information on the dielectric scale of materials, see the Technical Information.
