Introduction

Inductive sensors measure the distance between the sensor and the target without contact. The measuring element in magnetic sensors is typically an IC2 magnetoelectric transducer. This transducer uses an inductive coil to determine the position of an object, create interference currents, and calculate the time required to arrive at a certain frequency. The IC2 device senses the changing magnetic field of the target, allowing it to accurately measure its position and detect any changes. This makes inductive proximity sensors indispensable in a variety of applications, including hazard detection systems, automation control, and safety monitoring.

Application Field

Inductive sensors are most commonly used in industrial automation for detecting the position of mechanical parts or materials moving on a conveyor or around a test piece. They are also used in robotics for the detection of positions and objects, in mechanical engineering for detection of cycle points, limit positions, and transport paths, as well as in contactless speed measurements and on-site measurements.For detection in hazardous areas—such as oil and gas exploration and production facilities—IC2 sensors are ideal due to their programmable operating parameters. These parameters can be changed on site to precisely detect objects without leakages occurring.Inductive sensors are also used in devices such as shock and vibration monitoring, race timing, and weather monitoring systems. Other applications include level detection in grain stores and silos, cabin control systems, and robotics.

Working Principle

The operating principle behind an IC2 inductive proximity sensor is based on electromagnetic induction. The sensor consists of an inductive coil, which is powered by an alternating current. This current is then amplified by a transresistance amplifier, creating a near-field, called its field of influence. The field of influence is activated when a target moves into the sensor’s area of coverage. As the target moves, it creates a change in the magnetic field that the sensor detects. The sensor measures this change and determines the position of the target.The IC2 inductive proximity sensor offers superior performance over other types of sensors, due to its fast sampling rate, which is able to detect even the smallest target movements. The sensor is also extremely sensitive, with a range of detection from 0.5mm to 125mm. IC2 sensors are also very robust, and are generally resistant to contamination, dust, and even water (under certain conditions). Apart from being an accurate and precise way of measuring position, inductive sensors are also highly reliable, easy to use, and require minimal maintenance.

Conclusion

IC2 inductive sensors are used in a wide variety of applications, due to their relatively low cost, low power consumption, and extreme accuracy and reliability. Inductive sensors can measure the distance between a target and a sensor without contact, and can detect quick changes in the target’s magnetic field. IC2 sensors are widely used in industrial automation, hazardous areas, robotics, shock and vibration monitoring, weather monitoring systems, and many other applications. By understanding the working principle and application field of IC2 inductive sensors, we can use them more effectively in many different applications.
