Plastic detection sensors

Monday, 27 April, 2009 | Supplied by: Turck Australia Pty Ltd


Turck has introduced the BCC capacitive sensor series, specifically designed to provide accurate level detection in the plastic industry.

The series features good EMC and ESD immunity, allowing the sensors to detect the level of plastic pellets in a hopper while withstanding environmental interference.

The sensors are mounted on a plastic sight glass or in the hopper containing plastic pellets for point level detection.

They may also be mounted directly in a metal hopper without a reduction in range.

The series incorporates a laterally mounted shield that protects the devices from being affected by the metal hopper and thus include an integrated processor that allows the sensors to detect different types of plastics with no adjustment needed.
