Experience reliable and accurate fill level monitoring with the Balluff BCS M30BBM2-PPC30G-S04G capacitive sensor. This advanced sensor is specifically designed to detect the presence of products, bulk materials, or liquids by direct contact with its active sensing surface.A standout feature of the M30BBM2-PPC30G-S04G is its innovative spherical electrical field, which effectively compensates for deposits or buildup on the sensor's surface. This design significantly enhances reliability and reduces false readings, even in challenging applications where material adhesion is common. The sensor boasts a robust M30 barrel design and provides a PNP output. With its high degree of sensitivity and reliable compensation capabilities, this Balluff capacitive sensor is an ideal solution for continuous and accurate level monitoring in tanks, hoppers, and containers across various industries, including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and bulk material handling.

Our capacitive sensor heads are used when a sensor with integrated electronics would not function optimally due to the surroundings. For example at extreme temperatures or under the maximum pressure. Their compact design also makes them suitable for use in tight spaces. The sensor heads are operated via a separate amplifier.

The CC-E IAC/ILPO is a current measuring converter from the CC-E range. This converter, with 3-way electrical isolation, for sinusoidal currents, operates without any auxiliary power. It provides 2 input current signal ranges (0-1 A, 0-5 A, AC), selectable by a front-face sliding switch, and an output signal range of 4-20 mA. The adjustment of the gain and the offset is made via potentiometers on the front of the unit.

Mechanical row-position counters with up to 16 switching points are the classics of automation. The switching process is carried out by a telescopic ram. This ram is used to connect a mechanical switching element in a separate sealed chamber.The optimal choice of ram shape for the application in combination with our cams guarantees a long service life.
