Dist. Output
The environments in which
capacitive sensors are install-
ed can often be un
stable re-
garding temperature, humidity,
object distance and industrial
(noise) interference. Because
of this, Carlo Gavazzi offers as
standard features in all TRIP-
LESHIELD™ capacitive sen-
sors a user-friendly sensitivity
adjustment instead of having
a fixed sensing range, extend-
ed sensing range to accom-
modate mechanically demand-
ing areas, temperature stability
to ensure minimum need for
adjusting sensitivity if temper-
ature varies and high immuni-
ty to electromagnetic interfer-
ence (EMI).
Note:
Sensors are factory set
(default) to maximum rated
sensing range.

Installation Hints
Capacitive sensors have the
unique ability to detect al-
most all materials, either in li-
quid or solid form. Capacitive
sensors can detect metallic
as well as non-metallic ob-
jects, however, their tradition-
al use is for non-metallic
materials such as:
•Plastic Industry
Resins, regrinds or mould-
ed products.
•Chemical Industry
Cleansers, fertilisers, liquid
soaps, corrosives and pe-
trochemicals.
•Wood Industry
Saw dust, paper products,
door and window
frames.
•Ceramic & Glass
Industry
Raw material, clay or
finished products, bottles.
•Packaging Industry
Package inspection for level
or contents, dry goods,
fruits and vegetables, dairy
products.
Materials are detected due to
their dielectric constant. The
bigger the size of an object,
the higher the density of ma-
terial, the better or easier it is
to detect the object. Nominal
sensing distance for a capaci-
tive sensor is referenced to a
grounded metal plate (ST37).

regarding dielectric ratings
of materials please refer to

Relief of cable strain Protection of the sensing face Switch mounted on mobile carrierTo avoid interference from inductive voltage/
current peaks, separate the prox. switch pow-
er cables from any other power cables, e.g.
motor, contactor or solenoid cables Not correct
Correct
The cable should not be pulled A proximity switch should not serve as
mechanical stop
Any repetitive flexing of the
cable should be avoided
