A proximity sensor that suffers from the environmental impact of dust, humidity, and electromagnetic interference (EMI), can pose a serious problem in many applications. Building on its established capability, Carlo Gavazzi’s TRIPLESHIELD CA30CA capacitive proximity sensors provide increased immunity to these problems and more. The CA30CA Series includes diagnostic alarms and two LEDs for improved reliability and simplified troubleshooting during installation.
The IP67 and IP69K rated devices have a sensing distance of 2 to 20 mm for the flush or 4 to 30 mm non-flush mount designs. In addition to dust and humidity compensation as well as increased temperature stability, the proximity sensors have an optional dust alarm or temperature alarm output.
