Touch Switch D5C CSM D5C DS E 4 3 Unique 18-mm-dia. Capacitive Touch Switch with Choice of Three Actuators is Activated with Only a Very Slight Physical Contact Only a slight activation force is required, enabling detecting micro deflections, thin wires, or thin-plate conductors (e.g., steel or stainless). Application possible for non-conductors by indirectly connecting to ground. Instantaneous operation upon contact with extremely limited hysteresis for high-precision position detection. Diameter of only 18 mm with standard built-in amplifier, operation indicator, and sensitivity adjustment. Conforms to IEC IP67 * Freely replaceable antenna with screw mounting. Free attachment to enable changing the antenna shape according to the application. Be sure to read Safety Precautions on page 6 to 7 and * Malfunction may occur if used in locations subject to water or oil. Safety Precautions for All Limit Switches. Application Examples Detection of Incorrectly Set Work Press Position Confirmation Detection of Bent Drills Press Press D5C D5C D5C D5C Detection of Fine Wire or Thin Plate Detection of Loose Screws Detection of Loose Wires Wire D5C D5C D5C D5C Steel plate 1.0 mm Detection of End of Cloth or Paper Detection of Seams in Cloth or Paper (Detected with indirect ground) (Detected with indirect ground) The D5C detects the seam when the antenna The D5C detects the end of the paper or cloth touches ground pole. when the antenna touches ground.
