Series M12K4… sensors use a capacitive measuring
principle and can be used for object or level detection.
The product family consists of the following two sensor
styles:
– Flush-mount sensors (preferably for object detection)
– Non-flush mount sensors (media-contacting, preferable
for level detection)
Both styles are available with conventional switching final
stages or IO-Link (see section
page 15) and offer the following options:
– Configurable switching point (teach-in) via cable
(DI input) or IO-Link
– Displays
Switching State
and
Ready
– Protection from short circuit, voltage reversal, and
polarity reversal
For IO-Link sensors parameters are available for setting
behavior (see section
