The Turck BC10-P30SR-VP4X2 is a high-performance capacitive sensor designed for precise and reliable detection in a variety of industrial applications. This sensor features a threaded barrel design with an M30 x 1.5 thread, making it suitable for easy installation in diverse settings. Constructed from durable ABS plastic, the sensor is built to withstand the rigours of tough industrial environments.

With a detection range of 10 mm when flush-mounted and 15 mm for non-flush mounting, the BC10-P30SR-VP4X2 offers flexibility in deployment. The sensor operates within a voltage range of 10 to 65 VDC, catering to a broad spectrum of power supply requirements. It also boasts a secure operating distance of ≤ (0.72 x Sn), ensuring consistent performance and reducing the risk of false triggering.

The capacitive sensor is equipped with a terminal chamber for straightforward electrical connections and features a fine adjustment potentiometer for precise sensitivity calibration. It has a protection class of IP67, indicating a high level of protection against dust and water ingress, which is essential for maintaining functionality in challenging conditions.

For visual monitoring, the sensor includes a green LED for power-on indication and dual yellow LEDs to display the switching state. The BC10-P30SR-VP4X2 is designed to resist mechanical stresses such as vibration and shock, ensuring a long service life with a Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) of 1080 years according to SN 29500 (Ed. 99) at 40°C.

This capacitive sensor is an ideal choice for applications requiring non-contact detection of both metallic and non-metallic objects, including level control, material handling, and presence detection. Its robust construction and reliable performance make it a valuable component in any automated system.
