Balluff BCS004K Capacitive Sensor

Balluff BCS004K is a cylindrical capacitive proximity sensor in an M30 housing, engineered for flush installation and reliable object detection in automation lines. The 30 mm diameter by 82 mm long body uses an M30x1.5 thread and ships with a 2.00 m PUR cable, enabling straightforward mounting and wiring. It provides a single PNP normally-open output and operates on 10 to 35 V DC, drawing up to 300 mA, with a maximum switching frequency of about 100 Hz. The sensing range is adjustable from roughly 1 to 20 mm, allowing detection through many non-conductive materials and packaging when mounted flush in tight spaces. The enclosure is IP66 rated with a PBT housing and PUR jacket, supporting robust performance in demanding industrial environments.
