Easy customization to specific OEM requests:
different cable lengths and materials, special labelling:
customized pig-tail solutions with special cables and
connectors are possible on request..
The output can be operated either as a switching output
or in IO-Link mode.
Fully configurable via output IO-Link v 1.1. Electrical
outputs can be configured as PNP / NPN / Push-Pull /
External input, normally open or normally closed.
Timer functions can be set, such as ON-delay, Off-
delay, and one shots.
Logging functions: Temperatures, detecting counter,
power cycles and operating hours.
Detection modes Single point, two point and windows
mode.
Description
Analogue output: In IO-Link mode the sensor
will generate 16 bit analogue process data output
The new generation of CA30FAIO sensors are
representing the dielectric value measured by the sensor.
a complete family of high performance capacitive
sensors for detection of most solid or liquid targets
in industrial applications such as Plastic & Rubber,
Agriculture, Food & Beverage and Materials
th TM
handling. The 4 Generation of TRIPLESHIELD
technology provides increased immunity to
electromagnetic interference (EMI), especially
to frequency drives, and improves immunity to
humidity and dust.
The sensor housing has the IP69K rating as well as
approval by ECOLAB for cleaning and disinfection
agents.
On-board IO-Link communication opens up a
variety of functions, such as easy communication
and customization of advanced parameter settings.
Applications
Detection not only of the level of plastic pellets in plastic moulding machines but also the dielectric value of the pellets to
ensure correct manufacturing.
Detection not only of the wood pellets in pellet burners but also the density of the wood pellets.
