PEPPERL+FUCHS FTK40 5.4039/1401K Capacitive Sensor

The capacitive sensor, also known as capacitive proximity switch or capacitive level sensor, from PEPPERL+FUCHS with type number FTK40 5.4039/1401K is an electrical sensor for non-contact detection of objects or fill levels. It has the dimensions 10 x 10 x 5 cm and a weight of 0.08 kg. Capacitive sensors detect objects and fill levels in a non-contact manner, regardless of material and color, by measuring changes in the electric field. This enables precise monitoring in many industrial applications. Typical applications are found in level control of bulk materials and liquids, position detection of workpieces in automation technology, and monitoring of flow and presence in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
