55140-2L-04-A

The 55140-2L-04-A module is a position and proximity magnetic sensor and is designed to detect the presence or absence of ferrous metal within the vicinity, as well as measure the position of the metal object. This module is most commonly used in the automotive and industrial automation industries.

The 55140-2L-04-A module utilizes the Hall Effect principle which depends upon the interaction between a magnetic field and an electrical current. The module consists of a semiconductor which contains a region of positive and negative electrical charges. When a ferromagnetic material is brought near to the sensor a magnetic field is created which is in turn is picked up by the hall effect sensor. This interaction allows for a change in the voltage output of the sensor which can then be processed by electronic circuits to register various events such as proximity, speed, or position.

In the case of the 55140-2L-04-A module, this voltage can be processed to accurately detect either the position or proximity of ferrous metals within the vicinity of the module. The device consists of two parts including an electronic circuit, and the magnetic sensing device itself. The magnetic sensing device is made up of a Hall Effect sensor which is powered by an electronic circuit integrated on the board. This electronic circuit is in charge of boosting the output voltage from the Hall Effect sensor as well as providing power to the Hall Effect sensor.

The 55140-2L-04-A module is used in a variety of applications, primarily in the automotive and industrial automation industries. The device can be used for proximity sensing in applications such as detecting the presence of a car door or an automated jig. It can also be used in automation processes to accurately detect and measure the position of a magnetic object within the field. Additionally, the module can measure the speed of an object as it passes through the field of the sensor.

The 55140-2L-04-A module is a reliable device due to its electronic components and semiconductor construction. The advanced design of the module renders it adept at handling a wide range of temperatures, as well as high levels of shock and vibration. This variety of features makes the 55140-2L-04-A module an ideal choice for applications in the industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics fields.
