Capacitive Proximity Sensors from
Eaton’s electrical business are self-
contained devices designed to
detect both metallic and nonmetallic
targets. They are ideally suited for
liquid level control and for sensing
powdered or granulated material.
For best operation, they should be
used in an environment having
relatively constant temperature
and humidity.
Unless otherwise noted, the
products contained in this
document are not designed
or intended for use in human
safety applications.
34 mm Diameter Capacitive Sensors Offer Long-Range
Detection of Liquid and Other Targets
Product Features
■
Detect liquids, powders and other materials that are difficult or impossible
with other sensor types
■
Plastic body is corrosion resistant
■
Sensitivity adjustment
