Capacitive Switches
Category Selection
Captron capacitive switches/pushbuttons utilize touch control and are activated without pressure, using a hand or other parts of the body. These buttons have a determinate sensing distance, which may be altered by varying the approach speed and/or damping factor.
- Touch control, no mechanical pressure required
- Feedback - visual signals through LEDs
- 22mm, 50mm and 60mm barrel sizes
- Models with and without operator text
- Shock-resistant and vandal proof
- 100% water & oil-proof - IP69K
Switch Action
- Static (momentary action): the output signal is continuously on as long as the sensor area is activated
- Dynamic (one-shot action): the output signal length is limited (typically 300ms) when the sensor area is activated
- Toggle (push-on/push-off action): the output signal turns on when the sensor area is activated and stays on until the sensor area is activated again
LED Control
- Semi-automatic: LED1 is controlled separately while LED2 lights up when the operating surface is touched; ideal for prompting an operator to activate the switch
- Manual: LED1 and LED2 can be controlled separately for optical feedback like a signal indicator
- Automatic: LED1 is ON and LED2 is OFF when the button is not touched; LED1 is OFF and LED2 is ON while the button is pressed
