Capacitive proximity/level sensor


Senyd capacitive proximity sensor is a type of sensor that detects the presence or proximity of an object without physical contact. It works by generating an electric field and measuring changes in capacitance when an object enters the field. When an object comes close to the sensor, the capacitance changes, triggering the sensor to detect the object's presence.Capacitive proximity sensors are commonly used in various applications, such as object detection, liquid level sensing, and touchless interfaces. They are preferred for their non-contact operation, high sensitivity, and ability to detect a wide range of materials, including non-metallic objects. These sensors are used in industries such as automotive, food and beverage, and manufacturing for automation and control purposes.
