The M12 Capacitive Sensors with IO-Link Communications are the best choice for applications requiring accurate detection and data monitoring. Besides the M12 style sensors being used in the ...

SICK, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of sensors, safety systems, machine vision, encoders and automatic identification solutions for factory and logistics automation, announced the launch of ...

Comparison of Capacitive with Induction Sensors Capacitive sensing involves charging up plates, so it is somewhat slower than inductive: 10 to 50 Hz, with a sensing distance from 3 to 60 mm.

A capacitive proximity sensor can detect and measure a different dielectric or conductive material between the plates. The capacitor sensor is able to measure proximity, position/displacement ...

Typically the proximity sensor is an electrode made of copper that is on the PCB. Care does need to be taken in the design because if there is metal in the casing this can have a restricting effect on ...
