  • Page 6: About This Document

    Note that changes to the switching status (EDIT mode) become effective immediately. Intended Use The air gap sensor SOPA is intended for distance monitoring in a range of 20 … 200 μm. The distance measurement is performed using a non-contact pneumatic measuring process. This enables it to be used in harsh ambient conditions.
