Why Choose the EMAS SCM30NP1RC2 Capacitive Sensor?
The EMAS SCM30NP1RC2 is an industrial M30 capacitive proximity sensor designed for reliable non-contact detection in machinery, factory automation and process-control applications. As part of the EMAS SCM series, it combines an adjustable 3–15 mm sensing distance with a PNP normally closed output and a practical non-flush cylindrical housing.
Capacitive sensing technology allows the SCM30NP1RC2 to detect changes in capacitance when a target enters its sensing field. This enables the sensor to detect suitable metallic and non-metallic materials, including plastics, glass, powders, granules and liquids, making it a versatile alternative to inductive sensing where non-metallic target detection is required.
The SCM30NP1RC2 operates from a 10–30 V DC supply and provides a PNP normally closed (PNP-NC) output. Its M30 plastic body, non-flush sensing arrangement and 2 m pre-wired cable provide straightforward integration into industrial equipment, while its IP65 protection rating supports dependable operation in demanding automation environments.

Reliable Capacitive Detection for Industrial Automation
Capacitive proximity sensors detect targets by monitoring changes in the electrical field generated at the sensing face. Unlike inductive proximity sensors, which are primarily intended for metallic objects, capacitive sensors can respond to suitable conductive and non-conductive materials, making them useful for detecting plastics, glass, powders, granular products and liquids.
The EMAS SCM30NP1RC2 combines this versatile sensing principle with a 3–15 mm detection range, PNP-NC switching and a non-flush M30 plastic housing. Its solid-state, contactless sensing method reduces mechanical wear and makes the sensor suitable for repetitive detection tasks in automated production and process systems.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and factory automation.
