Balluffs economical Global.CProx line of capacitive sensors offers a broad range of products to reliably solve object and level detection applications. The Global.CProx family includes a wide array of tubular M12, M18 and M30 sensors available with either M12 connectors or pre-wired cables. Built to Balluffs high standards, all of the Global.CProx sensors offer reverse polarity and short circuit protection with enhanced EMC protection.
Flush-mount versions of these capacitive sensors can detect objects up to 15mm away, regardless of color, texture or material. Non-flush mount versions of the Global.CProx sensor line are ideal for level detection of bulk material or liquids either directly or through a plastic or glass container wall, with sensing distances up to 25mm.
Balluffs attention to quality, superior sensor design, and performance means better reliability, less down time, and higher productivity.
Global.CProx Sensor Features:
Stainless steel or plastic housings
PNP and NPN versions with normally open or normally closed outputs
Large Green power on LED
Large Yellow output LED
High EMC noise immunity
Extended switching distances
Improved adhesion compensation through non-flush switching characteristic
Wide setting range for sensitivity
