1. Liquid Level Detection in Non-Metallic Tanks
The CBN5-F46-E0 sensor can reliably detect the presence or absence of various liquids, such as water, chemicals, or oils, through the non-metallic walls of tanks or sight glasses. This non-contact method ensures hygienic operation.
Problem SolvedTraditional intrusive liquid level sensors are prone to fouling, corrosion, or contamination. This capacitive sensor offers a non-contact solution, eliminating direct contact with the liquid, reducing maintenance, and ensuring product purity, especially with its IP67 rating.

2. Granular Material Detection in Hoppers and Silos
This sensor is ideal for monitoring the fill level of granular materials like plastic pellets, grains, or powders in storage hoppers or silos. Its ability to detect non-conductive materials through the container wall makes it highly suitable.
Problem SolvedMechanical level switches in granular applications often suffer from wear, jamming, or material buildup. Ultrasonic or radar sensors can be affected by dust or material properties. The CBN5-F46-E0 provides a robust, non-intrusive, and maintenance-free solution for reliable granular material level detection.

3. Position Sensing for Non-Metallic Packaging on Conveyor Systems
The sensor can accurately detect the presence and position of various non-metallic packaging materials, such as plastic bottles, cardboard boxes, or sealed plastic bags, on a conveyor belt to trigger subsequent automated processes like filling, sealing, or sorting.
Problem SolvedStandard inductive sensors are limited to metallic object detection, while optical sensors can be prone to errors due to color variations, reflections, or environmental dust. This capacitive sensor reliably detects a wide range of non-metallic packaging materials, ensuring accurate product flow and efficient automated packaging operations.
