Capacitive displacement sensors with threaded bodies simplify mounting
Precision sensor manufacturer Micro-Epsilon has extended its capaNCDT series of non-contact capacitive displacement sensors with a range of threaded housing options that enable faster, easier mounting of the sensors in industrial or process manufacturing environments.
The new capaNCDT sensors with thread and socket are available in four sizes: M8, M12, M16 and M24, with measuring ranges of 0.5mm, 1.25mm, 2mm and 3mm respectively.
The capaNCDT series is available in different designs and versions. The sensors are differentiated by their measuring range, their design and by the technology used to manufacture them. In addition to the threaded housings, the capaNCDT series is also available in a cylindrical design with female connector/socket in measuring ranges from 0.05mm up to 10mm; in a cylindrical design with integrated cable in measuring ranges from 0.2mm up to 2mm; as flat sensors with integrated cable in measuring ranges from 0.2mm up to 2mm; or as gap sensors in measuring ranges from 0.9mm up to 9mm. Replacing the sensors can be executed without requiring any recalibration and within a short time.
Chris Jones, Managing Director at Micro-Epsilon UK commented: “Being able to offer our already comprehensive range of non-contact capacitive sensors with a threaded option is very important to many of our customers, who need to quickly mount multiple sensors into their production environments. This is a real differentiator for us in the market when customers are comparing suppliers of capacitive displacement sensors.”
The capaNCDT series is also suitable for the detection of fast moving objects and dynamic high speed processes, enabling fast, reliable measurements of motion sequences. Capacitive sensors are also suitable for use in vacuums and ultra high vacuum applications.
