E2EH-X3C1 2M Datasheet/PDFProximity Sensors
Proximity sensors are those devices which are used to detect the presence of nearby objects without any physical contact. They are very useful in a variety of applications ranging from automated machinery to residential security.
The E2EH-X3C1 2M proximity sensor is a type of inductive proximity detector. It detects objects which come near its activation field using an alternating magnetic field. This device can detect objects that are up to two meters away, making it ideal for detecting larger objects or a larger area.
How Does the E2EH-X3C1 2M Work?
The E2EH-X3C1 2M proximity sensor works by setting up an alternating magnetic field within its activation field. This alternating magnetic field is generated by a coil of wire inside the device. When a metallic object or a non-metallic object with a conductive surface comes into contact with this alternating magnetic field, the magnetic field induces an eddy current in the object. This eddy current then affects the balance of the magnetic field which is detected by the device.
Once the device has detected the presence of an object, it sends a signal to a connected electronic device or system. This signal can be used to take various actions such as activating a motor, opening a door, or triggering an alarm.
Applications of the E2EH-X3C1 2M
The E2EH-X3C1 2M proximity sensor has a variety of applications. It is particularly useful in larger applications such as automatic machinery which requires reliable detection of large objects or areas. It can also be used for safety applications such as for detecting the presence of people in an area where automated machinery is operating.
The device is also suitable for residential applications such as security systems or for use in automated lighting systems where the presence of people needs to be accurately detected.
Conclusion
The E2EH-X3C1 2M proximity sensor is a reliable and efficient detection device which can be used in a variety of applications. It is particularly suitable for larger detection range requirements and for safety applications. Its simple design and reliable detection means that it is an ideal solution for many detection requirements.
