Proximity Sensors are electrical devices that are used to detect when an object is close to them. The GS-5S-C5 Proximity Sensor is a versatile, cost-effective and reliable sensor that is commonly used in a wide variety of applications. This article provides an overview of the sensor’s application field and working principle.

The GS-5S-C5 has two variants: resonant inductive and non-resonant inductive. The resonant inductive variant is used for detecting metals, while the non-resonant inductive variant is used for detecting non-metallic objects, such as wood, plastic, and paper. The sensor has a sensing range of 0.05 – 5cm, a response time of 10ms for the resonant inductive variant and 25ms for the non-resonant inductive variant, and an operating voltage of 4 – 30V DC.

The GS-5S-C5 can be used for a variety of applications. It is well suited for detecting the presence or absence of metal objects in manufacturing and assembly processes, such as when detecting a sheet metal part or an assembly fixture. It is also commonly used in automation and robotics for detecting an object’s position or detecting when a part is in a specific location. In addition, the GS-5S-C5 is widely used in safety applications to detect the presence of people or objects in hazardous areas.

The GS-5S-C5 sensor’s working principle is based on the eddy-current principle. Eddy-currents are generated when a coil of wire is activated by an alternating current. The eddy-currents interact with the conductive material of the objects in its sensing area, thus producing a change in the electromagnetic field. The GS-5S-C5 is able to detect changes in the electromagnetic field and send out a signal when the object comes within the sensing range.

In summary, the GS-5S-C5 Proximity Sensor is a versatile and reliable sensor that can be used in a wide variety of applications, from manufacturing to safety. The sensor has two variants, resonant inductive and non-resonant inductive, which makes it suitable for detecting both metal and non-metal objects. Finally, the working principle of the sensor is based on the eddy-current principle, which allows it to detect changes in the electromagnetic field and send out a signal when an object is close.
