Capacitive Sensors
Capacitive sensors contain an oscillator by transistor in the frontal section. The oscillating circuit R – C (Resistor – Capacitor) is influenced by variations in capacity. In fact when any material, solid or liquid (water, wood, metal etc.), comes into contact with the active surface of the sensor the capacitance increases putting into action the oscillator up until the threshold of trigger inverts. By introducing a change in the condition of the final stage and therefore in the command of the external load a potentiometer makes fine adjustment to switching distance.
Specialist distributor Switchtec has strengthened its sales team with the appointment of Mike Careless as Midlands Area Sales Manager.
Switchtec has released Issue 10 of its Electrical Control Components Catalogue, now exceeding 175 pages and offering an expanded range of products for electrical wholesalers, panel builders, OEMs, and industrial users.
Switchtec has expanded its well-established SCL RCD switched socket and spur outlet range with the introduction of a new plastic-clad option, complementing the existing and popular metal-clad versions already widely specified for commercial and industrial installations. The extended range gives installers, OEMs and specifiers greater choice of finish and installation suitability, while maintaining the same focus on point-of-use safety and robust performance.
Switchtec announces the availability of the BKF Series Compact Single Pole Terminal Blocks, a high-performance solution engineered for reliable power distribution in industrial control panels and electrical systems where space, safety, and efficiency are critical.
