Safety Notes on CE Marking The following apply to the capaNCDT CST6110: - EU Directive 2014/30/EU - EU Directive 2011/65/EU Products which carry the CE mark satisfy the requirements of the EU directives cited and the relevant applicable harmonized Europe- an standards (EN).
Functional Principle, Technical Data Functional Principle, Technical Data Area of Application The capaNCDT CST6110 is a capacitive measuring system for non-contact rotation speed measurement of conductive measurement objects such as metals and non-conductive objects such as ceramics or plastics. Measuring Principle The sensor reacts to approach or removal (depending on the initial state) of materials.
1) Depends on sensor and target geometry; reference value for CS025/M5-CAm1,0/RS (capacitive rotary speed sensor) and electrical- ly conductive target; with non-conductive materials, shorter measurement distances are required depending on the material 2) Relates to analog output; digital output without limitation 3) Up to an ambient temperature of max. 50 °C capaNCDT CST6110 Page 8...

The controller is protected against polarity reversal. Power supply only for measuring devices, not to be used for drives or similar sources of impulse interference at the same time. MICRO-EPSILON recommends the PS2020 power supply unit, see Optional Accessories in the Appendix. PS2020...
RAW signal can be reliably evaluated over the entire measuring range, the signal conversion requires a sufficient buffer in the switching thresholds. You achieve this with an optimal distance between the sensor and the measuring object or by in- creasing the sensitivity of the controller. capaNCDT CST6110 Page 15...
Status LED, see Chap. 5.2. Depending on the operating mode set, the Status LED changes. Set the desired operating mode and the measuring object divider, see Chap. 5.2, see Chap. 5.3. Position the sensor, see Chap. 5.4. capaNCDT CST6110 Page 16...
The controller can evaluate measuring objects with up to 16 ridges or grooves. Define the number of ridges or grooves of your measuring object. Therefore, use the BLADES switch on the controller, see Fig. Fig. 11 BLADES switch, set to 8 ridges or grooves capaNCDT CST6110 Page 18...

If you use measuring devices (e.g., an oscilloscope) whose signal ground (GND) is connected to the protective ground of the power socket, insert an galvanic isolation (e.g., by using an isolating transformer). Ensure that possible interference from other components is minimized (e.g., by shielding). capaNCDT CST6110 Page 27...
The liability for material defects is 12 months from delivery. Within this period, defective parts, except for wearing parts, will be repaired or replaced free of charge, if the device is returned to MICRO-EPSILON with shipping costs prepaid. Any damage that is caused by improper handling, the use of force or by repairs or modifications by third parties is not covered by the liability for material defects.
