Press release
Reliable detection of objects and fill levels
Leuze electronic is expanding its portfolio of optoelectronic and inductive switches with capacitive proximity switches, making it possible for users to obtain complete solutions for all detection requirements from a single source.
Owen, June 9, 2017 - Leuze electronic is introducing contactless, wear-free switches which are
resistant to electromagnetic influences, interference and contaminants in the air such as dust
with its new range of capacitive products. The capacitive switches are available in a cylindrical
or cubic design, and embedded or non-embedded versions for a wide range of mounting
options. Due to their semiconductor technology, they have a long life expectancy, regardless of
the detection and switching frequency. The new variants make contactless detection of many
different objects and media possible, regardless of the shape. They are particularly suitable for
detecting objects in harsh and dirty environments due to their IP67 housing. Because of their
ability to "see through" certain materials, they are predestined for use in the packaging industry,
detecting products in outer packaging and behind container walls, checking fill levels and
monitoring these for completeness.
