GX-HL15B

Proximity sensors can be used to detect nearby objects without physical contact. GX-HL15B is one of the most commonly used proximity sensors. It is widely used in various fields such as industrial automation, robotics, medical equipment, and security equipment. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of GX-HL15B.

Application Field

GX-HL15B is a non-contact proximity switch designed to detect objects within a 6 mm range. It can detect objects made of different materials such as metal, Liquid, cardboard and plastic. Therefore it can be widely used in various fields where non-contact detection is required, such as:

• Industrial automation: GX-HL15B can be used to detect the position of objects quickly and reliably in industrial production, thus ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of the production process.
• Robotics: GX-HL15B can be used in the robots to detect the distance between the robot and the obstacles, thus helping the robot to avoid collision with obstacles and move safely.
• Medical equipment: GX-HL15B can be used for non-contact detection of objects in medical equipment such as medical infusion pumps, in order to ensure the accuracy and safety of medical infusion.
• Security equipment: GX-HL15B can be used in various types of security equipment such as gates and doors, in order to accurately and quickly detect the position of objects such as people and objects.

Working principle

The working principle of GX-HL15B is based on the principle of inductive proximity switch. It consists of a main body, a power supply module, a connector, a sensing head and a body. The power supply module supplies power to the sensor head and the body. The sensing head is made up of a coil and a magnetic core. When an object is close to the coil, the magnetic field generated by the coil will be disturbed, thus the signal value of the coil will be changed. The body will detect the signal value and send out the detection signal for different applications.

When the Sensor Head detects the metal object, a detection signal is generated, which is transmitted to the control unit through the cable. The control unit will process the signal and issue control instructions. The sensor can detect objects within a 6mm range so it is ideal for close-range detection. The sensing head also has strong interference protection and can work stably in harsh industrial environment.

Conclusion

GX-HL15B is a widely used proximity switch with many advantages. It has a wide application field such as industrial automation, robotics, medical equipment and security equipment. The working principle of the sensor is based on the inductive principle and it can detect objects within a 6 mm range.Therefore, GX-HL15B can be used in various situations where non-contact detection is required.
