If you have knowledge of electronics, it is easy for us to know that the inductive sensors are designed to detect metallic targets,  but can inductive sensors detect aluminum? The answer is yes. Why? we will provide a full explanation how it works with aluminum. Table of Contents What is an inductive sensor? Inductive sensor […]

Introduction The float switch is a structurally simple component used for liquid level control. It does not have complex circuits and is not susceptible to interference. As long as the correct material is chosen, it can be used with any type of liquid, pressure, or temperature, making it widely applicable in water treatment equipment and

In electrical wiring or maintenance work, we often come across a component called a sensor. Sensors have different functions and come in various types, such as magnetic switches, photoelectric switches, and pressure sensors. However, they can be classified into two main types: PNP and NPN. What is their differences and how do we identify and

With the continuous progress and development of technology, sensor technology plays a crucial role in modern society. As an important type of sensor, inductive sensors detect the properties or states of target objects by measuring the changes in inductive elements. Based on the characteristics of inductance, inductive sensors offer advantages such as high sensitivity, wide

The latest list of 13 proximity sensor manufacturers in 2023 has been released. Let’s take a look at the brand data of the list released this time. The list includes: 5 German proximity sensor manufacturers, 3 Japanese proximity sensor manufacturers, 3 Chinese proximity sensor manufacturers, 1 Korean proximity sensor manufacturer and 1 Swiss proximity sensor

In this article, we will introduce how to detect a proximity sensor. Proximity switch includes inductive proximity switches, capacitive proximity switches, photoelectric switches, safety gratings, and hall proximity switches. Their working principle is basically the same, that is, when the measured object is within its detection range, the circuit will be turned on or off.

There are 3 differences between a shielded proximity sensor(also know as flush sensor) and unshielded proximity sensor(also called non flush proximity sensor), so what are they? Let’s have a look them in following parts in this article. Table of Contents PBT sensor head length difference A proximity sensor head material is PBT(Polybutylene terephthalate). PBT material

Contents Overview Inductive proximity sensors are indispensable tools in various industries, such as automation, automotive, and manufacturing, due to their ability to detect the presence of metallic objects without physical contact. Among the different types of these sensors, two-wire inductive proximity sensors are particularly popular for their simplicity and ease of installation. This article delves

Contents What is a diffuse photoelectric sensor? A diffuse photoelectric sensor is also called diffuse-reflective sensor, is a type of optical sensor that uses light to detect objects. It works by emitting a beam of light and then detecting the scattered light that bounces off a detected object. This type of sensor contains two components:
