Liquid-level sensing is used in consumer electronics appliances like washing machines to detect the detergent level. The sensor technolo­gy has progressed to such an extent that refrigerators can now ...
In Part 1 of this article, we explained popular liquid-level sensing methods and their limitations. We also delved into why capacitive-sensing techniques are superior to traditional methods used for ...
Described as being immune to noise and easy to deploy, the flat-pack BCF10 capacitive sensor for level applications has the ability to detect liquids with high concentrations of chlorides such as ...
Capacitive sensing is a contactless-sensing technique with numerous applications, ranging from proximity sensing (Fig. 1), gesture recognition, automotive rain sensors, and remote liquid-level sensing ...
Most proximity sensors use an electromagnetic field to sense the presence of a target metal. But there are times when it's necessary to sense nonmetallic materials such as plastics, liquids, or ...
CARLO GAVAZZI is proud to announce the launch of the new CD34 Series liquid level capacitive sensors. The CD34 Series is designed to detect water-based liquids through non-metallic walls, i.e. plastic ...
The E-T-A NR260 Level Sensor, an IP68 protected capacitive level sensor, is ideal for monitoring de-ionised water in fuel cells, and for monitoring aggressive liquids in the chemical industry. NR260 ...
There are generally two types of accelerometers currently available—capacitor-based and thermal versions—and both are microelectromechanical devices (MEMS). So what’s the difference between the two?
The new SmartLevel sensors from Balluff provide accurate level detection in demanding applications where extensive foaming, filming, and material build-up are present. Capacitive sensors are used for ...
