Working Principle

The 55400-00-02-C magnetic sensor works by detecting changes in the magnetic field around a magnet or a ferromagnetic material. It consists of a permanent magnet, a coil, and a detector unit. When a conducting material passes close to the magnet, it creates a field which causes an induction voltage in the coil. The induction voltage is then processed in the detector unit to determine the position and speed. As the material passes, the strength of the field decreases and the voltage also decreases. This information is then used to measure the position and speed of the material.

The 55400-00-02-C can also be used to detect the presence of a metal object in a specific location. This is done by measuring the changes in the magnetic field when a metal object is placed near the magnet. The 55400-00-02-C can also detect the location of the metal object by detecting the changes in the magnetic field as the object is moved. This is particularly useful in applications where accurate tracking of an object is necessary such as in the fabrication of circuit boards or in machine vision applications.

The 55400-00-02-C can be used in a wide variety of applications due to its low power consumption, small size, and wide range of measured parameters. Its ability to measure positions, speeds, and detect the presence of metal objects makes it an ideal choice for various applications.
