Level measurement with time of flight - SensoPart

Level sensors for level measurement

Levels must be measured in almost all industries. Depending on the application, you want to continuously measure the level or occasionally receive a notification that states the quantity or volume: is there enough liquid in the tank? Is the silo sufficiently solid?

Level switches and level sensors

Level sensors and level switches provide information about the level of substances present in tanks, silos and other liquid containers. A distinction is made between continuous level measurement (analog) and level detection of minimum and maximum levels.

Measurement principles for level measurement:

  • Capacitive level measurement
  • Ultrasonic level measurement
  • Runtime measurement with laser (TOF principle)

F 10-series sensors - Miniature sensors - SensoPart

Miniature sensors with LED of laser

The SensoPart F 10 series is a miniature sensor, the smallest laser sensor in its class. The miniature sensor is also available with LED light. With background suppression, it is possible to set the range of the sensor. The size of the sensor is only 21 x 14 x 8 mm.

Reliable detection in millimeter areas

The light spot of the F 10 laser sensors remains so concentrated that small parts in the millimeter area are still reliably detected, even at long distances, for example, a wire with a diameter of 0.5 mm at a distance of 60 mm. The F 10-RLH miniature sensor is the only sensor with the possibility to adjust the scanning distance.

Typical fork sensors and optical windows

Forks and optical window sensors exhibit characteristic features as a result of their special housing design: thanks to their precise beam guidance, they are particularly suitable for the detection of small parts. The sensors are also easy to assemble because no time-consuming adjustment is required.

Detection of small parts

The fork sensors of the FGL-IK and FGL-RK series detect components from a diameter of 0.2 mm. For example, they are used for detection of small parts on conveyor sections and sleeves or for counting bulk goods on vibration bands. Rotational speed measurement is another typical application.

SMARTPLUG: PLUGIN-INTELLIGENCE!

SmartPlug from SensoPart prevents expensive timing elements or additional controls from being used, because the SmartPlug makes the sensor smarter. Connected to SmartPlug, the sensor takes over additional control functions. As a timer, counter or inverter, for monitoring the frequency, or for delays in delay or drop-out.

SmartPlug is suitable for sensors from all manufacturers with standardized M12 plugs; a special adapter cable is available for connection to an M8 plug. SmartPlug offers its sophisticated electronics in a small, easy-to-handle 60 x 20 mm² plug housing. With its maximum output current of 400 mA, the SmartPlug can also be used as a switching amplifier. SmartPlug: plugin intelligence.

Capacitive Sensors - SensoPart

Capacitive sensors are suitable for detecting all types of metal and non-metal objects. Even very transparent glasses or liquids are easy to detect with a capacitive sensor from SensoPart. Only the dielectric conductivity of the target material is relevant: the greater the dielectric constant of a material, the higher the possible switching distances or the more reliable the detection.

Detect from the outside

Measuring fill levels is one of the classic applications of capacitive sensors because many liquids have relatively high dielectric constants. Under certain circumstances it is also possible to measure from outside the container because capacitive sensors can look through walls, as it were. They are also used for the detection of solids such as wood, paper and plastics.

Great immunity against disruptive factors

They can be found in the most diverse industrial sectors because of their great immunity against disruptive factors of all kinds. SensoPart offers a wide range of capacitive sensors in enclosures for all application areas. Read more about capacitive sensors.

F18-2 serie Cylindrical photocells and optical sensors - SensoPart

Cylindrical photocells and optical sensors - SensoPart

Sensors in a cylindrical housing offer several advantages compared to the cubic design: On the one hand they are very robust, on the other hand, they can be installed in a particularly simple and space-saving way, thanks to the integrated threading. And, they are also very economically priced.

Design-typical advantages

The new F 18-2 series from SensoPart also offers all of these design-typical advantages, but exploits them even further. Thus, the sensors with a metric 18 mm thread are optionally available in a very stable full metal housing, where the plugs are also made of metal. Two additional housing bore holes and the extensive as well as sophisticated mounting accessories, provide the user with a broad variety of installation options. Read more about cylindrical photocells.
