£127.48
The Carlo Gavazzi CB18CLN12TOFT is a reliable capacitive proximity sensor with timer function designed for non-contact detection of solid, liquid and granulated materials in industrial automation and level monitoring applications. Featuring a compact M18 non-flush cylindrical housing, this sensor provides dependable detection performance for tanks, silos, containers and processing equipment.
Part of the Carlo Gavazzi CB series AC TRIPLESHIELD™ range, the CB18CLN12TOFT combines capacitive sensing technology with high noise immunity and adjustable sensitivity. Its fixed 30 s ON-delay timer function helps prevent false switching caused by material movement, vibration or unstable sensing conditions.
The sensor operates from a 20–250 V AC supply and provides a 12 mm rated sensing distance with adjustable sensitivity. With a 2-wire AC SCR output, normally open switching function, 2 m PVC cable and IP67 protection, the CB18CLN12TOFT is suitable for industrial level detection and material monitoring applications.
Capacitive proximity sensors detect changes in an electrical field to identify the presence of materials without physical contact. This technology is ideal for monitoring solids, liquids, powders and granulated substances in industrial processing environments.
The Carlo Gavazzi CB18CLN12TOFT combines adjustable sensitivity, robust construction and timer-controlled switching to provide dependable operation in applications where stable level detection is required. Its M18 housing and cable connection allow straightforward integration into industrial machinery and control systems.
