Overview
The Allen-Bradley 875CP-G20N30-A2 is an AC-powered capacitive proximity sensor designed for industrial automation and control applications. This cylindrical plastic-housed sensor detects the presence of objects without physical contact, making it ideal for use in manufacturing, packaging, material handling, and assembly systems. The 30mm barrel diameter and compact form factor allow flexible installation in confined spaces, while the 20mm sensing range provides reliable performance in high-speed production environments.
