Sensor provides measurements for powder bulk solids applications

The Rechner Automation capacitive sensor model KAS-80-A24-A-M30-PA-120C-Z02-1-NL is designed for dryer applications for powder bulk solids. With a temperature rating of 120°C, the sensor has a polyamide housing resistant to abrasion.

Granular material not an issue for the Rechner fully potting sensor, the company says, and high vibration not a problem.

Rated watertight and dust tight to IP67 and 12 to 30 Vdc, units provide a 20-turn trim pot and sensing range from 2 to 25 mm.

The non-flush mountable sensor is available in either PNP or NPN configurations.
