Are you still having a headache about detecting the presence or absence of objects?
Are you still bothered by checking the liquid level?
Are you still troubled by the limited installation of application scenarios?
Today, SICK is back with the secret weapon of substance detection: capacitive proximity sensors.
The return of capacitive sensors will meet everyone's needs with better production capacity and better service.
01 Product Overview
The capacitive proximity sensor family from SICK at a glance:
The products are divided into basic type, liquid level detection type, high switching frequency type and chemical corrosion resistant type according to different use scenarios.
02 Product features
Capacitive proximity sensors from SICK detect all types of metals and non-metals: powders, granules, liquids, and solids – even through container materials such as plastic or glass walls.
Thanks to its unique product characteristics, it can be reliably detected and operated reliably even in demanding applications.
03 Key scene applications
FMCG industry: cap inventory inspection
In the FMCG industry, in order to ensure the high productivity of the filling line, the lid in the feed funnel needs to be inspected. The capacitive proximity sensor can be easily mounted on the outside of the funnel, passing through the wall of the non-metallic funnel to identify the presence of the lid and clearly indicate the liquid level.
Electronics: Hose level detection in dispensers
In the electronics industry, dispensers are particularly widely used, using capacitive proximity sensors to detect the presence of glue inside the glue bottle through the wall of the non-metallic glue bottle, helping the system to detect the use of glue. There is no need to consider the color of the liquid or the glue bottle, including the non-transparent one.
Machinery manufacturing industry: plate inspection
In the automated machinery manufacturing industry, capacitive proximity sensors are required to detect whether the wood panels are in place in the processing and production (e.g., cutting, stacking, polishing) of the wood panels, and the different colors of the panels will not affect the normal operation of the sensors.
04 Customer benefits
Product performance such as shape, color, and maintenance-free is not detected, ensuring your continuous production.
The high sensing distance of the trigger and the compact sensor size save space on your production equipment or line.
Convenient and fast sensitivity adjustment, suitable for different applications and a variety of connection methods, ensure your fast commissioning and installation.

Sick Sensors – An introduction to the photoelectric effect of photoelectric sensors
It is a physical phenomenon in which light irradiates certain substances and changes the conductive properties of the substance, which can be divided into three categories: external photoelectric effect, internal photoelectric effect and photogenerated volt effect. The external photoelectric effect refers to the physical emission of electrons from the surface of an object under the action of light.
