The Phidgets Capacitive Proximity Sensor – 8mm is designed for the non-contact detection of objects within its range. This sensor is capable of being triggered by a diverse array of materials, including metals, human touch, and water, as well as any object possessing a dielectric constant distinct from air. The sensor’s detection distance is subject to variation based on the shape, thickness, and type of material being detected.
This device features adjustable sensitivity, allowing for precise calibration to suit specific applications. An LED indicator provides a visual cue when the sensor is activated, enhancing usability and monitoring. The sensor is constructed with nickel-plated brass, ensuring durability and reliability in various environments.
The sensor is equipped with mounting nuts and washers, facilitating straightforward installation. It operates within a supply voltage range of 10 to 30 V DC and has a maximum current consumption of 15 mA. The sensor is protected against reverse polarity, ensuring safe operation. With an IP67 rating, it is resistant to dust and water, making it suitable for use in challenging conditions. The operating temperature range is from -25 C to 70 C, and it functions effectively in humidity levels ranging from 35% to 95% RH.
