## **CA18EAxxBPxIO - IO-Link**
## **Capacitive Proximity Sensors with IO-Link communication**
## **Benefits**
- **A complete family.** Available in M18 in a robust Stainless Steel AISI316L 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 labelling: 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.
- Electrical
- **Fully configurable via output IO-Link v 1.1.** 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 shots.
- **Logging functions:** Temperatures, detecting counter, power cycles and operating hours.
## **Description** re
The new generation of CA18EA…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 Materials handling. The 4[th] Generation of TRIPLESHIELD[TM] technology provides increased immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI), especially to frequency drives, and improves immunity to humidity and dust.
- **Detection modes** Single point, two point and windows 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 of the level of plastic pellets in plastic moulding machines but also the dielectric value of the pellets to ensure correct manufacturing.
- Detection not only of the wood pellets in pellet burners but also the density of the wood pellets.

**==> 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, e.g.: 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.

* The IP69K test according to DIN 40050-9 for highpressure, high-temperature wash-down applications. The sensor must not only be dust tight (IP6X), but also able to withstand high-pressure and steam cleaning. The sensor is exposed to high pressure water from a spray nozzle that is fed with 80°C water at 8’000– 10’000 KPa (80–100bar) and a flow rate of 14–6L/min. The nozzle is held 100 –150 mm from the sensor at angles of 0°, 30°, 60° and 90° for 30s each. The test device sits on a turntable that rotates with a speed of 5 times per minute. The sensor must not suffer any damaging effects in appearance or function from the high pressure water function.

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 540,000+ 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.
