Introduction:
- Lorentzzi® M8 capacitive sensor is a cylindrical proximity sensor with M8 thread design, capable of detecting both metal and non-metal objects stably.
- We offer two main versions: shielded (flush type) with a sensing distance of 1.0 mm; and unshielded (non-flush type) with a sensing distance of 2.0 mm.
- Built-in multiple protection functions including overload protection, short-circuit protection and reverse polarity protection. It works steadily under a wide DC voltage range from 10 VDC to 30 VDC.
- Both PNP and NPN output types are optional:
- PNP models: CM8-3001P_ (1.0 mm) / CM8-3002P_ (2.0 mm)
- NPN models: CM8-3001N_ (1.0 mm) / CM8-3002N_ (2.0 mm)
- It features a wide working temperature range of -25℃ ~ 75℃, and reaches IP67 waterproof grade, perfectly resistant to dampness and oily working conditions.
- Since capacitive sensors can detect almost all substances, please keep the installation environment clean for stable operation.
- Widely applied in liquid level monitoring, conveyor object counting (matched with ZN48 preset counter), position detection, liquid filling control, silo residual material detection and other industrial automation scenarios.
