Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi CB32CLN20QTAX10M ATEX Capacitive Proximity Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi CB32CLN20QTAX10M is an ATEX-approved capacitive proximity sensor designed for reliable level detection and non-contact sensing of solid, fluid and granular materials in potentially explosive dust environments. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi CB32 TRIPLESHIELD™ capacitive sensor series, this Ø32 mm sensor combines adjustable sensing distance, relay switching and robust industrial protection for demanding automation applications.
The CB32CLN20QTAX10M provides an adjustable 4–20 mm sensing range and operates from a 24 V AC/DC supply. Its SPDT relay output with change-over contact allows direct switching of loads, while the extended 10 m PVC cable simplifies installation where sensors must be positioned away from control equipment.
Designed with a non-flush cylindrical housing measuring approximately 32 × 101 mm, the sensor provides IP67 protection and ATEX certification for suitable hazardous dust environments. TRIPLESHIELD™ technology improves immunity against electrical interference, while the capacitive sensing principle enables detection of liquids, powders, granulates and other non-metallic materials.
