CA18CAN12PAM1 Carlo Gavazzi

CA18CAN12PAM1, Capacitive Proximity Sensors Thermoplastic Polyester Box Models CA30CAN/CAF, CA18CAN12PAM1, CA30CA Capacitive Proximity Sensors incorporate enhanced 4th Generation TRIPLESHIELDTM technology. In addition, these sensors have a higher immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI), especially to frequency controllers. 4th Generation TRIPLESHIELDTM not only features optimized EMI, but also increases immunity to moisture and dust. The implementation of the stability indication facilitates the configuration procedure since the Stable ON and Stable OFF positions are indicated through the green and yellow LEDs. The detection distance increases by 20 – 25%, allowing for additional stable detection. The dust alarm function provides an early warning indicating that the detection environment needs to be cleaned. The temperature alarm function triggers an alarm if the temperature of the detection surface exceeds 60 degrees Celsius. The sensor box incorporates IP69K, as well as ECOLAB approval for cleaning and disinfection agents. , CA18CAN12PAM1, Capacitive sensors can detect almost all materials, in liquid or solid state. They are able to detect metallic and non-metallic objects. However, they are normally used with non-metallic materials; for example: Plastics industry: Resins, chips or molded products. Chemical industry: Cleaners, fertilizers, liquid soaps, corrosive substances and petrochemical substances. Timber industry: Sawdust, paper, door and window frames. Ceramic and glass industry: Raw materials, clay or finished products and bottles. Packaging industry: Inspection of the level of content in packaging, dry goods, fruits and vegetables and dairy. Materials are detected by their dielectric constant. The larger the size of an object, the higher its density and the better it is detected. The nominal 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.
