Datasensing CQ50/AP-2A Sensors

The Datasensing CQ50/AP-2A Sensors are designed for precision and reliability in various industrial applications. These capacitive sensors feature a cubic plastic housing made from durable polycarbonate, ensuring robust performance in challenging environments. With a nominal sensing distance of 6mm, these sensors operate on a DC supply voltage ranging from 10 to 30Vdc, making them versatile for different setups. The sensors boast a PNP output type with a normally open (NO) function, providing a switching frequency of 10Hz. They are equipped with essential protective features, including short-circuit protection with an autoreset function, reverse polarity protection, and impulsive overvoltage protection, ensuring longevity and safety in operation. The CQ50/AP-2A sensors are designed with a flat, shielded mounting and come with a 2-meter PVC cable for easy installation. They have a repeat accuracy of 5% and a thermal drift of Sr less than 20%, ensuring consistent performance. The sensors are capable of handling a load current of up to 50mA, with a no-load supply current of 10mA or less, and a leakage current of 100µA or less. With an IP67 degree of protection, these sensors are resistant to dust and water ingress, making them suitable for use in harsh conditions. They operate efficiently within a temperature range of 0 to 60°C and can be stored in temperatures as low as -30°C and as high as +75°C. The compact dimensions of 50x30x7mm and a weight of 70g make them easy to integrate into various systems. Approved with CE and compliant with EMC compatibility standards IEC 60947-5-2, the Datasensing CQ50/AP-2A Sensors are a reliable choice for those seeking high-quality capacitive sensing solutions.
