Position Sensors - Angle, Linear Position Measuring

Position sensors are devices used to measure the position of a device or object. They can detect the position of an object by measuring the linear distances, angles, or both. There are three types of position sensors: linear, rotary, and angular, depending on the type and purpose of the application. One of the most common types of position electronic sensors is the 8156V1T10L.5ES, designed for use in applications with linear and angular positions.

Application Field of 8156V1T10L.5ES and Its Working Principle

The 8156V1T10L.5ES is a dual-range LED position sensor commonly used for angular and linear position measuring. It features a dual-colored LED, easy installation, wide measuring range, adjustable circuit parameters, and high accuracy. The sensor has a working range of 0 to 2000 degrees, with a resolution of 10 mm/cm. It works by measuring the relative change in optical reflectivity between two adjacent LEDs when illuminated by a light source. This allows the sensor to accurately measure the absolute position of the object it is attached to.

The 8156V1T10L.5ES position sensor is primarily used for angular measurements such as in automotive applications. Automotive engineers often need to measure and adjust the position of automobile suspension components to ensure the car handles correctly. The 8156V1T10L.5ES, with its high accuracy, wide range of measurement, and adjustable parameters, makes it an ideal choice for automotive engineers.

The 8156V1T10L.5ES can also be used for linear position sensing applications. It is most often used to measure linear distances such as the distance traveled by a conveyor belt or robot arm. The sensor is mounted in the path of the object or device and measures the relative change in reflectivity between two adjacent LEDs when illuminated. The sensor then calculates the distance traveled based on the reflectivity measurement and can provide an accurate linear measurement.

The 8156V1T10L.5ES position sensor is a versatile and reliable device that offers a wide range of applications for both angular and linear position measurement. Its accurate measurements and adjustable parameters make it an ideal choice for automotive and robotic applications, as well as for industrial and commercial applications where precision and accuracy are essential.
