High-resolution Capacitive Sensor has User-adjustable Setpoint

March 26, 2011 By Randy Frank

Need high precision in proximity sensing?The setpoint of Lion Precision’s CPA100 capacitive sensor can be adjusted to detect presence/absence with 15 nm RMS (150 nm p-p) resolution. Industrial processing applications of the analog ouptut sensor include: production line part sorting, double sheet detection in printers or related processes and monitoring of processes involving nonconductive materials. The […]

The Object of Pepperl+Fuchs Newest Photoelectric Sensors is Clear

August 27, 2010 By Randy Frank

That is clear object detection. GLV18 Series photoelectric sensors with Clear Object Detection use reflectors to detect transparent objects up to 2.5 m away, or opaque objects up to 5 m away. Offered in an industry-standard M18 threaded cylindrical housing, the sensor is up to 50% shorter. In addition, the company claims the power consumption […]
