Specification

The SICK CM18-08BPP-TW0 and CM18-08BPP-KC1 capacitive proximity sensors are engineered for reliable non-contact detection of both conductive and non-conductive materials, including liquids, powders, and granular media. Featuring a compact M18 x 1 threaded housing with a robust PTFE coating, these sensors deliver superior performance in corrosive or sticky environments. With a flush installation design and a sensing range up to 8 mm, they are ideal for level monitoring, object detection, and position sensing in packaging, food processing, and chemical industries. The PNP complementary output and adjustable sensitivity via a 270° potentiometer provide flexibility for diverse control system integration. Backed by an IP67 rating and wide operating temperature range, these sensors ensure long-term reliability in the most demanding conditions.
