Measurement Sensor offers sensing lengths to 3.3 ft.

Big Beam Sensor (BBS) measures width and height of solid and opaque targets. Unaffected by target surface color or reflectivity, BBS uses modulated laser source to back light object being measured. Sensing lengths up to 3.3 ft apart can be achieved without effecting accuracy. Characteristics include 1.18 in. beam height, better than 0.5% accuracy @ 5 kHz, 30 micron repeatability, and typical...

RFID system features integrated sensors.

The IQ-Sense optoelectronic and ultrasonic sensors have been integrated into the Moby-P RFID system. Sensors are individually parameterized simultaneously with production process to provide parameter, production and diagnostics data. Teach-in function copies the values set on a sensor to other sensors, while system diagnostics finds faults such as open-circuit, short-circuit or sensor failure....

Flow Sensors use thermal dispersion technology.

Series 180 Flow Sensors, with no moving parts, provide switching, alarming, rate metering, and totalizing of air, gases, or liquids. Line sizes from 0.25-6 in. are supported. Thermowell-mounted, platinum RTD sensors prevent contamination by process fluid. Mean time between failure exceeds 60,000 hr. Applications include fuel and air feed lines, additive dispensing control, oil and lubricant...

Pressure Transducer suits submersible applications.

With CVD strain-gauge design, Model 528 is resistant to aging and insensitive to thermal transients and pressure cycling. Modular design has various pressure fittings and electrical connections, and all wetted parts are constructed of corrosion-resistant 17-4 PH stainless steel. Product exhibits 0.1% FS accuracy over -20 to +212Ã-

Choosing the Right Scrap & Chip Conveyor System

Understanding the different types of scrap and chip conveyors.

Current Transducers mount to stripped-wire relays.

Series HBC-138A ac-to-dc transducers sense ac line currents from 5-100 A and produce proportional output voltage of 0-10 Vdc. Inputs can produce signal to analog or digital meter, or can be used by PC or PLC to provide closed-loop control. Factory-set models provide output voltage of 10 Vdc at full scale, while some models provide output voltages that are adjustable using onboard multi-turn...

Current Sensor suits thru-hole PCB assembly applications.

Closed loop, linear current sensor, Model CSNA111 is based on Hall effect principles and null balance or zero magnetic flux method. It provides ac, dc, or impulse current sensing up to 70 A with no limitation on measured current waveform. Thru-hole sensing allows signal to be sensed using non-invasive connection, while rapid response time of less than 1 Ã-µs allows output signal to closely...

Draw Wire Transducers handle NEMA 4/IP66 environments.

With ability to monitor up to 85 in. of displacement, Series 6 miniature transducers offer FlexSignal(TM) electrical outputs including 4-20 mA, low-level bridge, voltage conditioner, standard and high-resolution digital, or voltage divider. Voltage conditioner output allows for 12-40 Vdc input and provides user-settable outputs such as 0-5, 0-10, Ã-

Holiday Detector enables non-destructive coating inspection.

SPYÃ-® Model 670 incorporates wetted flat or roller sponge as electrode to detect holidays with pinhole accuracy, reducing inspection time for large, flat surface areas. Powered by 9 V battery, unit weighs 3 lb and detects coating defects as thin as 1 mil. When holiday is found, signal light and horn are emitted. Water is used as conductor on sponges for coatings from 1-10 mil. Non-foaming...

Ultrasonic Sensor includes built-in background suppression.

Measuring .75 x 2.00 x 1.5 in., Model RPS-400-6 offers 2-6 in. sensing range and is suited for tight locations. It detects clear objects and is not affected by changes in target color or material. Sensor can operate in dusty environments making it suited for conveyors, high-speed counting, and PC board handling equipment.

Pressure Sensor produces digital and analog outputs.

Model DS provides RS485 or RS232 output and 0-5 Vdc analog output. Digital output eliminates need for interface card with connection to PC or data acquisition system. Frequency response of analog output and 380 readings/sec of digital output meet test and measurement requirements. All-welded, stainless steel sensor has combined accuracy of Ã-
