OMRON W2GJ series touch sensor

Reliable operation achieved with only a light touch. Models equipped with anti-static FG terminals are also available.

• Suitable for embedding in equipment
• Enables flexible touch sensor configurations; touch electrodes and sensor electrodes can be fastened using screws
• FG terminal models (W2GJ‑L6) help prevent static electricity transfers from body to electrode
• Supports 5 to 15 VDC with open‑collector output

Features

• No design required — eliminates the need for sensitivity adjustments or custom circuits, reducing development time
• Stable operation achieved using a touch electrode that changes capacitance based on touch level
• Easy connection — touch electrodes and sensors can be fastened with screws
• No PCBs required, enabling flexible touch sensor configurations

Applications

• Lights
• Elevators
• Vending Machines
• Faucets
• Contact detection for smart doors
• Contact detection for shutters
• Contact detection for vacuum cleaners
