Extremely small capacitive sensors deliver highest accuracy

2022-10-18

The new capaNCDT CSE01 and CSE025 sensors expand Micro-Epsilon's capacitive sensor portfolio. With a diameter of 3 mm and a length of just 15.6 mm, the CSE01 is one of the smallest triaxial sensors in the world. The sensors are equipped with integrated cable and can be integrated even in confined installation spaces.

Capacitive sensors from Micro-Epsilon are characterized by small sensor dimensions while providing the highest precision in distance, position and thickness measurements. Micro-Epsilon offers an extensive portfolio with more than 30 standard capacitive sensors in measuring ranges from 0.05 to 10 mm. Due to the innovative triax technology, the sensors can be replaced without additional calibration.

Robust capacitive sensors are used both in industrial environments, where sub-micron accuracy is achieved, and in clean environments, where even measurements down to sub-nanometer accuracy are possible. These capacitive sensors also provide extremely stable signals in special environments such as vacuums, clean rooms or magnetic fields. The sensors are temperature-compensated and achieve the highest precision even at fluctuating and high temperatures.
