BC20-K40SR-VP4X2 Turck Capacitive Sensors

Turck BC20-K40SR-VP4X2 is a capacitive proximity sensor belonging to the BC...-K40 series, designed for embeddable applications. It operates on a supply voltage range of 10-65Vdc, including nominal values of 12Vdc, 24Vdc, and 48Vdc. The sensor features an ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) housing and sensing face, ensuring durability. It comes pre-equipped with a wiring chamber terminal block and an M16x1.5 entry for connections. This model presents a 40mm diameter smooth cylindrical/barrel shape with a terminal chamber. It offers a degree of protection rated at IP67, suitable for various environmental conditions, and can operate within an ambient air temperature range of -25°C to +70°C. The sensor has a maximum switching frequency of 100Hz and includes 1 x digital output (10-65Vdc; PNP; 200mA max.), with a no-load current consumption of 15mA. Its sensing distance is 20mm, and it features protection functions against short-circuit (pulsed), overload, and reverse polarity. The control circuit is rated at 200mA / 0.2 A, and it supports operating modes of NO (Normally Open) / NC (Normally Closed) complementary outputs.
