Proximity Sensors: UM18-217161101 Application Field and Working Principle

Proximity sensors are commonly used sensing devices that detect the presence of an object within a certain distance without physical contact. They are used in various industrial, commercial and consumer applications, from factory automation to robotics. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the UM18-217161101 Proximity Sensor.

Application Field of UM18-217161101 Proximity Sensor

The UM18-217161101 is a cost-effective, general-purpose proximity sensor designed for a wide range of applications. This device features a non-metallic gap detection up to 2mm and an operating temperature range of -25 to +85°C. It can detect objects of different materials, shapes, and sizes to detect or measure distances over a wide range. It is typically used in industrial settings such as automation and robotics, and can be used in both indoor and outdoor applications. This device is designed to detect objects through the use of an electromagnetic field, allowing objects to be detected even if they are not made out of metal. It is also equipped with a start and stop switch that allows users to set the range of detection. Additionally, it is immune to harsh environmental conditions, including dust, dirt, and oils, due to its sealed construction.

Working Principle of UM18-217161101 Proximity Sensor

The UM18-217161101 uses electromagnetic field technology to detect the presence of an object within its detection range. This device is equipped with a coil which produces an electromagnetic field that covers a certain area. When an object enters the area covered by the electromagnetic field, it disrupts the field, which is detected by the sensitivity detector. When the presence of an object is detected, the device sends a signal to the output. This signal can be used to trigger a certain event such as a warning signal or actuate a certain machine operation. Furthermore, the output signal of this device can also be used in enclosed areas as it is resistant to dust, dirt, and oil.

Conclusion

The UM18-217161101 Proximity Sensor is a cost-effective detection device for a wide range of applications. It works on the principle of detecting the presence of an object through the use of an electromagnetic field, which is immune to dust, dirt, and oils. This device can be used in industrial, commercial, and consumer settings, including factory automation and robotics.
