KXS Extreme capacitive sensors

Capacitive Sensors with extreme long sensing distance (KXS)

The capacitive sensors with extreme long sensing distance (KXS/KXA) are based on the three-electrode measuring-principle. This measuring principle allows much larger sensing distances compared to the two electrode principle of common capacitive sensors (KAS), up to 10- times the norm. Although one achieves essentially larger switching distances with these capacitive systems, the size of the sensors is small. KXS Systems are used for applications where the sensing distances of standard sensors are not sufficient.

A further feature is the Duplex- or Triplex-operation. With the corresponding evaluation unit it is possible to adjust 1, 2 or 3 switching points with only one sensor.

Rechner KXS features:
  • Housing:  Ø 5 mm to Ø 32 mm
  • Operating voltage: 18 to 36VDC
  • Operating distance: 0 mm to 120 mm
  • Housing material: stainless steel / PTFE PEEK / PVDF
  • Permitted ambient temperature:  - 70°C to + 800°C
