Capacitive Sensor Head
Balluff GmbH
NEUHAUSEN AUF DEN FILDERN, Germany, Jan. 16, 2018 — Balluff GmbH has announced a flexible, self-adhesive capacitive sensor head for noncontact, continuous level detection on nonconductive vessel or pipe outer walls made of glass, plastic or ceramic.
With IP 64 protection, the sensor head features a maximum detection range of up to 850 mm in length. It can be individually trimmed to length with a minimum of 108 mm and easily attached to container walls without additional accessories using the integrated adhesive surface. For polar, aqueous media the wall thickness may be between 2 and 6 mm or up to 2 mm for nonconductive media such as oil or bulk materials.
The sensor is designed for use with type BAE sensor amplifiers from Balluff. The optional amplifier allows levels to be continually detected over the entire measuring range as analog values or via IO-Link or as minimum or maximum value exceeding. Both the IO-Link and the analog convenience amplifier feature versatile setting possibilities.
