Product description

Properties

Sensors from the product family BCS R08RRE
function based on the capacitive measuring
principle. This product family features devices
with two measurement technologies:
Devices with standard technology can be used
•
for object recognition of conductive and non-
conductive media such as synthetic granules,
wood, etc.
Devices featuring the patented SmartLEVEL
•
technology are used for fill level detection of
conductive liquids, even with build-up and
frothing.
Discrete outputs or IO-Link interface are available
for either technology (see section Available
devices).
Further characteristics of this product family:
Switch point is teachable via DI-(white cable
•
to L+) or IO-Link.
LED displays "Output function" and "Power
•
on"
Protection from short circuit, voltage reversal,
•
and polarity reversal
Approvals: CE, UL
•
For IO-Link devices, additional parameters are
available for setting behavior, see section
Operation with IO-Link.

Applications

Some example applications are:
Object detection
•
Stacking height recognition
•
Fill level detection through the tank wall
•
Leackage detection (except SmartLEVEL
•
versions)
