Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi CB32CLN20RVAX5M Capacitive Proximity Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi CB32CLN20RVAX5M is an ATEX capacitive proximity and level sensor designed for reliable detection of solid, liquid and granulated materials in demanding industrial applications. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi CB32CLN TRIPLESHIELD™ series, it combines adjustable capacitive sensing with a 230 V AC supply, SPDT relay output and adjustable OFF-delay functionality.

The CB32CLN20RVAX5M provides an adjustable 4–20 mm sensing range, allowing its sensitivity to be configured for different materials and installation conditions. Capacitive sensing enables detection of conductive and non-conductive substances, making this sensor particularly useful for level monitoring in hoppers, vessels, silos and other process equipment handling powders, granulates, fluids and bulk materials.

Designed for non-flush mounting, the sensor uses a 195–255 V AC rated supply range and provides a 2 A SPDT change-over relay output. Its adjustable 1 s to 10 min OFF-delay supports applications where the output must remain active for a defined period after the target condition changes, while the 5 m PVC cable, 32 × 101 mm PBT housing, TRIPLESHIELD™ technology, ATEX approval and IP67 protection support dependable use in demanding environments.
