Magnetic Sensors - Position, Proximity, Speed (Modules)

Magnetic Sensors, also known as magnetoresistive sensors, are electro-mechanical devices that are used to measure, regulate or react to magnetic fields. They have become increasingly popular in the automotive, medical, industrial, and consumer electronics industries due to their ability to accurately measure magnetic field magnitude and orientation. The 59135-3-V-03-E is a Magnetic Sensor that can be used for sensing position, proximity, and speed.

Application Field

The 59135-3-V-03-E Magnetic Sensor is widely used in many different applications, from automotive and industrial applications to consumer electronics. In automotive applications, it can be used to detect the speed of the vehicle, the pressure of the brake pedal, the status of the clutch, and the position of the suspension. In industrial applications, it can be used to control the speed of a conveyor belt, regulate the pressure of pumps or steam turbines, and monitor the flow rate of fluids. In consumer electronics, it can be used for proximity sensing, such as to detect the presence of an object being held near a device, as well as for monitoring the position of a device in its fiducial plane.

Working Principle

The 59135-3-V-03-E Magnetic Sensor works by sensing the strength and direction of a magnetic field. It has two components—an exciter coil, and a pick-up coil. The exciter coil creates a magnetic field around it, and the pick-up coil is placed within this magnetic field. As the magnetic field changes—either due to changes in the position or direction of the device, or external magnetic fields—the pick-up coil responds by moving its signal relative to ground.

The magnetic field strength is then used to determine the position, proximity, or speed of the device. The exciter coil can be driven by an AC current to produce an alternating magnetic field, or by a DC current to produce a static magnetic field. In the former case, the signal produced by the pick-up coil will be an alternating signal, while in the latter case, the signal will be DC. The signal is then amplified and filtered to isolate the useful signal for the application.

Conclusion

The 59135-3-V-03-E Magnetic Sensor is a versatile device with a variety of applications ranging from automotive to industrial to consumer electronics. It works by sensing the strength and direction of magnetic fields, and can be used to measure position, proximity, and speed. With its compact size and easy installation, the 59135-3-V-03-E Magnetic Sensor is an ideal choice for many different applications.
