Micro-Epsilon has expanded its capaNCDT series of capacitive displacement sensors to include sensors for demanding operating conditions, such as ultra-high vacuums, clean rooms, strong magnetic fields, and extreme temperatures
The new capaNCDT CSH/SE series features five cylindrical sensors and seven models with a flat design, with measuring ranges from 0.2mm to 5mm. The sensors are based on the CSH standard sensors, providing an almost identical design and cable dimensions whilst being optimised for demanding operating conditions.
The capaNCDT series of capacitive displacement sensors has been designed for maximum precision, stability, and versatility. With resolutions as small as 0.03nm, a compact design, multi-channel capability, and OEM-compatible solutions, the portfolio is suitable for a range of applications in industry, research, and development. This product range also covers temperatures from -270 °C to +800 °C and provides sensors suitable for standard and special applications.
Designed for extreme conditions
The new SE sensors cover temperatures from -270 °C to +200 °C and provide excellent temperature stability. Their non-magnetic titanium housing makes them suitable for applications near strong magnetic fields, such as in research, cryogenics, and aerospace. The integrated cable is extremely low-outgassing, temperature-resistant and mechanically resilient.
Optimised for vacuums and clean rooms
For applications in vacuums and clean rooms, the SE sensors are specially cleaned before delivery. The material selection is designed to minimise contamination and is optimally prepared for residual gas analyses, making the sensors suitable for ultra-high-vacuum applications down to 10-10 mbar, such as in particle accelerators, semiconductor plants, and chemical vapour deposition processes.
New gap sensors for more integration freedom
Micro-Epsilon has also expanded its portfolio of capacitive gap sensors. The new CSG-0.5/CRg2.0, CSG-1/CRg2.0 and CSG-1/90/CRg2.0 models offer a more compact design than previous CSG sensors.
With a measuring surface that extends off to the side, the CSG-1/90/CRg2.0 sensor also demonstrates the sensor’s high adaptability. This enables precise, reliable gap measurements even in extremely limited installation spaces.
In line with the portfolio expansion, the revamped capaNCDT catalogue includes new content, illustrations, and visualisations.
