## **CA18CAxxBPxIO - IO-Link** ## **Capacitive Proximity Sensors with IO-Link communication** ## **Benefits** - **A complete family.** Availability in M18 in a robust PBT housing with an operation of 2-10 mm flush or 3-15 mm non-flush. - **Enhanced EMC performance:** 4[th] Generation TRIPLESHIELD[TM] - **Easy customization to specific OEM requests:** different cable lengths and materials, special labeling, customized pig-tail solutions with special cables and connectors are possible on request. - **The output** can be operated either as a switching output or in IO-Link mode. - **Fully configurable via output IO-Link v 1.1.** Electrical outputs can be configured as PNP / NPN / Push-Pull / External input, normally open or normally closed. - **Timer functions** can be set, such as ON-delay, Offdelay, and one shuts. - **Logging functions:** Temperatures, detecting counter, power cycles and operating hours. ## **Description** The new generation of CA18CA…IO sensors are a complete family of high performance capacitive sensors for detection of most solid or liquid targets in industrial applications such as Plastic & Rubber, Agriculture, Food & Beverage and Material handling. The 4[th] Generation of TRIPLESHIELD[TM] technology providing increased immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI), especially to frequency drives, and improve the immunity to humidity and dust. - **Detection modes** Single point, Two point and window mode. - **Analogue output:** In IO-Link mode the sensor will generate 16 bit analogue process data output representing the dielectric value measured by the sensor. - The sensor housing has the IP69K rating as well as approval by ECOLAB for cleaning- and disinfection agents. On-board IO-Link communication opens up a variety of functions, such as easy communication and customization of advanced parameter settings. ## **Applications** - Detection not only the level of plastic pellets in plastic molding machines but also the dielectric value of the pellets to avoid false manufacturing. - Detection of not only the wood pellets in pellets burners but also the density of the wood pellets. **1** 30/08/2018 CA18CAxxBPxIO ENG Carlo Gavazzi Industri A/S **CA18CAxxBPxIO - IO-Link** **==> picture [40 x 40] intentionally omitted <==** ## **Main functions** - The sensor can be operated in IO-Link mode once connected to an IO-Link master or in standard I/O mode. - Adjustable parameters via IO-Link interface: - Sensing distance and hysteresis. - Sensing modes: single point or two point or window mode. - Timer functions like: On-delay, Off delay, One shot leading edge or trailing edge. - Logic functions such as: AND, OR, X-OR and SR-FF. - External input. - Logging functions: Maximum temperatures, minimum temperatures, operating hours, operating cycles, power cycles, minutes above maximum temperature, minutes below minimum temperature, etc. **2** 30/08/2018 CA18CAxxBPxIO ENG Carlo Gavazzi Industri A/S **CA18CAxxBPxIO - IO-Link** **==> picture [40 x 40] intentionally omitted <==** ## **References** ## **Product selection key** **CA18CA BP IO** Enter the code option instead of **==> picture [484 x 195] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Code Option Description<br>C - Sensing principle: Capacitive sensor<br>A Cylindrical housing with threaded barrel<br>18 - Housing diameter (mm)<br>C - Plastic housing - PBT<br>A - Axial sensing<br>F Flush installation<br>N Non-flush installation<br>08 Sensing distance: 8 mm<br>12 Sensing distance: 12 mm<br>B - Selectable functions: NPN, PNP, Push-Pull, External Input (only pin 2) or External teach<br>input (only pin 2)<br>P - Selectable: N.O. or N.C.<br>A2 2 meter PVC cable<br>M1 M12, 4-pole connector<br>IO - IO-Link version<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> Additional characters can be used for customized versions. ## **Type selection** **==> picture [484 x 63] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Connection Distance Mounting Code<br>8 mm Flush CA18CAF08BPA2IO<br>Cable<br>12 mm Non-flush CA18CAN12BPA2IO<br>8 mm Flush CA18CAF08BPM1IO<br>Plug<br>12 mm Non-flush CA18CAN12BPM1IO<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> **3** 30/08/2018 CA18CAxxBPxIO ENG Carlo Gavazzi Industri A/S **CA18CAxxBPxIO - IO-Link** ## **Structure** ||B||A|A|C|H<br>,|H<br>,||B||A|||C|H<br>%|H<br>%|H<br>%|||E<br>F<br>G<br>||E<br>F<br>G<br>|||D| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| ||I||||||||J||||||||||||||| |||**Fig. 1**_CA18 Cable_||||||||**Fig. 2**||**Fig. 2**_CA18 Plug_||||||||**Fig. 3**_Colour code_|||| |**A**||||Sensitivityad||adjustment|||||||**F**|||Blue|||||||| |**B**||||Yellow LED|||||||||**G**|||Black|||||||| |**C**||||Green LED|||||||||**H**|||Sensingface|||||||| |**D**||||Brown|||||||||**I**|||2 m,4 wire PVC Ø 5|||4 wire PVC Ø 5,2 mm cable||||| |**E**||||White|||||||||**J**|||M12x1,4-pin male connector||||in male connector|||| **4** 30/08/2018 CA18CAxxBPxIO ENG Carlo Gavazzi Industri A/S **CA18CAxxBPxIO - IO-Link** **==> picture [40 x 40] intentionally omitted <==** ## **Sensing** ## **Detection** **==> picture [480 x 144] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> Sensor front Selector A Logic Time Output Sensor<br>S.P., Two P.

About Novapart
Novapart is a B2B electronic component broker specialising in stock shortages and cost reduction. We source hard-to-find parts and identify compliant alternatives across a catalogue of 410,000+ components from 500+ manufacturers.
Learn more →Stock Shortage Specialist
When a component is unavailable, discontinued or has an unacceptable lead time, we tap into our network of vetted European and Asian distributors to source what you need — without compromising on quality or traceability.
Request a quote →Compliant Alternatives
We identify pin-to-pin, electrically equivalent substitutes that meet the same certifications (RoHS, AEC-Q100, REACH) as your original specification — validated against datasheets, not just part numbers. Often at a lower cost.
