It is now possible to integrate process values into the IT structure via an intelligent sensor interface and to achieve easier indication, analysis and evaluation. ifm electronic’s new KG5065 capacitive sensors allow the application to become transparent, while the process value allows effective processing. At present, this additional advantage is unique and offers solutions, even for difficult applications.
The capacitive sensors detect bulk materials or liquids through non-metallic vessel walls. Typical applications for product detection can be found in the semiconductor, paper and wood industries.
The parameters can be set either via the buttons on the sensor or via the IO-Link interface. This can be done using the USB interface E30396 or the E30398 memory plug. The Linerecorder Sensor software also simplifies the monitoring of various types of sensors.
KG5065 allows easy parameter setting via IO-Link before installation of the sensor and versatile data processing via IO-Link. No additional cabling is necessary and the user has clear visible indication of the switching status. The sensor is easily installed with mounting adaptors and cable ties.
