Capacitive Proximity Sensor (1-10 mm)

Unlike inductive proximity switches that are limited to detecting metals, our capacitive proximity sensors can detect all non - metallic objects with static electricity, in addition to metal objects. It operates with a power supply range of 10 - 30V and has an adjustable detection range from 1 to 10mm. There's an indicator for real - time device status feedback. Enclosed in a PBT plastic shell, it meets the IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating, suitable for both outdoor and indoor projects. It has low temperature drift and high detection accuracy, making it ideal for mechanical automation, security equipment, and object detection. The standard detection object at the factory is a 20*20*1mm pure iron block. The detection distance depends on the size, thickness, and conductivity of the detected object - larger, thicker, and more conductive objects result in a longer detection distance. Specification: Power Supply Range: DC10 - 30V; Detection Distance: 1 - 10MM, adjustable (up to 20mm for metal, 10mm for non - metal); Induction Type: Capacitive; Output Mode: PNP normally open (high - level output); Connection Mode: Brown line - positive pole, Blue line - negative pole, Black line - output line; Switching Frequency: 50Hz; Response Time: <1.5ms; Switch Hysteresis: <15%; Repeatability: <5.0%; Protection Mechanism: short circuit protection, overload protection, reverse polarity protection; Temperature Resistance Range: high temperature 70°C, low temperature - 25°C; Protection Level: IP67; Size: 50*20*10mm / 1.97*0.79*0.39 inch. Shipping List: Capacitive Proximity Sensor x1, Screwdriver x1.

Using the capacitive proximity sensor is easy. First, connect the wires correctly: the brown line to the positive pole, the blue line to the negative pole, and the black line as the output line. Make sure the power supply is within the 10 - 30V DC range. You can adjust the detection range according to your needs, but remember the detection distance may vary depending on the object's size, thickness, and conductivity. For best results, use larger and more conductive objects. When installing, place it in a location where it can effectively detect the target objects. Keep in mind that this sensor can work both indoors and outdoors due to its IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating. However, avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures outside the - 25°C to 70°C range. For maintenance, simply clean the sensor with a soft, dry cloth if it gets dirty. If you encounter any issues, check the protection mechanisms as it has short - circuit, overload, and reverse - polarity protection. If problems persist, you may need to contact customer support.
