Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi CA30CLN12MT Capacitive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi CA30CLN12MT is a versatile M30 capacitive proximity sensor designed for reliable level and presence detection of solid, liquid and granulated materials. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi CA30CLN series, it combines an adjustable sensing distance, multi-voltage AC/DC supply and SPDT relay output in a robust threaded thermoplastic housing.
The CA30CLN12MT provides a 12 mm nominal sensing distance with an adjustable 4–12 mm sensing range. Capacitive sensing technology enables reliable detection of conductive and non-conductive targets, making the sensor particularly useful for applications involving grains, powders, plastics, fluids and other process materials.
Designed for non-flush mounting, this model operates from a wide 24–230 V AC/DC supply and incorporates a 2 A SPDT change-over relay output. The CA30CLN12MT is the version without an integrated time delay, providing direct switching response, while its PVC cable connection, M30 × 97.6 mm housing and IP67 protection rating support dependable installation in industrial and agricultural equipment.

Reliable Capacitive Detection for Solids, Liquids and Granulates
Capacitive proximity sensors detect changes in capacitance when a material enters their sensing field. This enables the Carlo Gavazzi CA30CLN12MT to detect a broad range of conductive and non-conductive materials, making it especially useful for monitoring liquids, powders, grains, granulates and other bulk products.
The wide AC/DC supply range and SPDT relay output make the CA30CLN12MT particularly flexible for machine builders and process engineers. Because the relay can switch a load directly in suitable applications, the sensor can simplify control-system integration, while its adjustable sensitivity enables reliable detection to be configured for the material being monitored.
Typical Applications
Grain and agricultural material level detection.
Liquid and fluid level monitoring.
Powder and granulate detection.
Hoppers, silos and storage vessels.
Packaging and filling machinery.
Industrial process monitoring.
Conveyor and materials handling systems.
