Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The KX5002 belongs to the KX series of capacitive NAMUR sensors intended for industrial applications requiring compatible intrinsically safe sensing circuits. Its capacitive principle enables non-contact detection of suitable objects and materials. The 6 m cable configuration provides additional installation flexibility for equipment where the sensor is positioned away from the control or evaluation system.
The long cable configuration allows the sensor to be installed in machinery and process equipment where greater wiring distance is necessary. Capacitive sensing can be used for object and material detection without mechanical contact. The NAMUR design is suitable for compatible evaluation systems, while the robust industrial construction supports use in automation environments requiring reliable sensing and practical field installation.
The KX5002 provides a capacitive NAMUR sensing solution with a 6 m cable configuration for extended installation requirements. It is suitable for machine and process applications where non-contact detection and intrinsically safe system integration are required. Its industrial construction and established NAMUR principle make it a practical option for hazardous-area automation and process equipment.
