CAPTRON Capacitive SENSORswitches are fully electronic switches based on touch sensor technology. Originally introduced in public transportation applications in 1994, the SENSORswitch product range is now used across numerous industries where reliability, durability, comfort and modern design are essential requirements.
The SENSORswitches operate without mechanical wear and feature maintenance-free electronics, making them suitable for applications requiring long-term reliable operation. Their robust and vandal-proof construction is designed to withstand demanding operating conditions.
The switches feature a 100% water-proof and oil-proof design and are resistant to adverse environmental influences as well as industrial contaminants such as dirt, dust and chemicals. This makes them suitable for use in harsh industrial and public environments.
CAPTRON SENSORswitches are available in a wide range of configurations, including different shapes, materials, connection types, installation methods and installation depths. They can also be adapted to specific standards and application requirements.
For specialized applications, standard SENSORswitches can be customized both technically and visually to meet individual customer requirements.
