capacitive proximity sensor / cylindrical / amplified / IP65

Captive Sensors form BDC Electronics are ideal for any sort of material detection. Plastic or glass walls can be used for liquid materials and support wide range of applications like level controls on storage bin or tanks; detection of presence or filling of bottles; rain sensor; anti-vandalic key; etc. The Potentiometer fitted at the back cap close to the LED helps to adjust the sensing distance. It works on supply voltage (UB ) of 10-60 Vdc with max. ripple of 10% and no-load supply current (Io ) of ? 10 mA at a voltage drop (Ud ) of ? 2,2 V. IP65 compliant, it is suitable for temperature ranges from - 25?- + 70?C with max. thermal drift of sensing distance of ? 20%. A % Repeat accuracy (R) of 4% with switching hysteresis max (H) of 15%. Equipped with a yellow LED Cable conductor with cross section of 0,35 mm2 on 18 mm 0,50 mm2 on 30 mm, it protects against short-circuit and overload.
