Rechner Sensors KAS-80-C-M8-25-S Captive Sensor

The Rechner Sensors KAS-80-C-M8-25-S Captive Sensor is a high‑performance capacitive sensor in an M8 mounting format designed for non‑contact detection of dielectric materials. This captive variant in the KAS family operates on a 10–35 V DC supply and draws about 250 mA, with a maximum power draw around 6 W, making it suitable for compact automation layouts where space and power are at a premium. As part of Rechner’s KAS line, it benefits from High Performance design features that promote stable sensing across temperature changes and reduced susceptibility to interference, enabling reliable detection through walls or non‑metallic packaging. Typical applications include sensing the presence or level of plastics, powders, grains, or liquids in containers, hoppers, or process vessels where a compact, threaded M8 sensor is advantageous.
