Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi CA30CLC30BP Capacitive Proximity Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi CA30CLC30BP is an industrial M30 capacitive proximity sensor from the Teach-in TRIPLESHIELD™ range, designed for reliable non-contact detection of metallic and non-metallic materials. Its teach-in sensing distance is adjustable from 0.5–30 mm, providing flexible configuration for presence detection, level monitoring and material sensing applications.

Operating from a 10–40 V DC supply, the CA30CLC30BP automatically detects NPN or PNP loads and provides selectable normally open or normally closed switching. The teach-in function allows the switching point and output function to be configured without conventional sensitivity adjustment, while remote setup provides additional flexibility during machine integration.

The sensor features an M30 × 1.5 threaded thermoplastic polyester housing, a fixed 2 m PVC cable and an operating frequency of 15 Hz. TRIPLESHIELD™ technology, humidity compensation, an alarm output and IP68 protection help deliver dependable operation in demanding industrial sensing environments.

Teach-In Capacitive Detection for Industrial Automation

Capacitive proximity sensing allows the Carlo Gavazzi CA30CLC30BP to detect both conductive and non-conductive targets, making it suitable for applications involving liquids, powders, granulates, plastics, glass, paper and other industrial materials. The extended sensing range can be configured using the teach-in function to suit the target and installation conditions.

Automatic NPN/PNP load detection reduces the need to select separate sensor variants for different DC input configurations, while selectable NO or NC operation provides additional control flexibility. Combined with humidity compensation, remote setup, an alarm output and TRIPLESHIELD™ protection, the CA30CLC30BP provides a versatile solution for industrial level, presence and material detection.

Typical Applications

• Liquid and bulk-material level detection.
• Powder and granulate monitoring.
• Plastic, glass, paper and packaging material detection.
• Conveyor and material handling systems.
• Packaging and processing machinery.
• Industrial production and factory automation systems.
