Capacitive sensors are devices used to detect non-magnetic materials. They operate by measuring the change in capacitance of an object. PNP NO capacitive sensors are normally open sensors that close their output when the capacitance value changes. These sensors are commonly used in industrial automation, robotics, material handling equipment, and other industrial applications.

Size and Detection Distance:

The size of PNP NO capacitive sensors varies depending on the application. Some industrial applications require small sensors, while others require larger ones.

Detection distance is the distance at which the capacitive sensor operates. This distance is an important factor to consider for the sensor to operate correctly. The detection distance depends on factors such as the sensor size, output voltage, material type of the object, and the sensor's environmental conditions.

Features:

Some of the features of PNP NO capacitive sensors include:

    Normally open: The sensor closes its output when the capacitance value changes.
    Sensitivity: Capacitive sensors have high sensitivity and fast response times.
    Operating voltage: The sensors typically operate within a range of 10-30V DC.
    Operating temperature: The sensors can function at temperatures ranging from -25°C to +70°C.
    Mounting options: Capacitive sensors come in different mounting options such as flange mounting, screw mounting, and holder mounting.

Applications:

PNP NO capacitive sensors are commonly used in industrial applications to detect non-magnetic materials. Some examples of applications include metal processing machinery, robotics systems, conveyors, drilling machines, automation systems, liquid level detection systems, and more.

Conclusion:

PNP NO capacitive sensors are highly sensitive and reliable devices that are commonly used in industrial applications. However, it is important to choose the appropriate sensor size and detection distance based on the requirements of the application.
