Capacitive sensors are found in a wide range of equipment, from consumer electronics to industrial/process control. Touch buttons are increasingly found in lamps and dimmers. Motion detectors can ...

This paper describes the design and characterisation of a long-range capacitive displacement sensor, NanoSensor® model NXE2. Special emphasis is placed on the design features and metrological ...

A detector circuit (Schmitt trigger) and amplifier (comparator) are used to switch the output, which can be normally closed (NC) or normally open (NO). Inductive displacement sensors ... in such ...

This compact mains voltage sensor is intended to ... isolator (opto-coupler), PC1 in the circuit, is used. The input (light emitting diode) in this opto-coupler is connected across the mains voltage ...

The brochure on capacitive nanometrology displacement sensors and electronics presents PI’s state-of-the-art systems and also features a tutorial on single plate and dual plate capacitive sensors and ...

For context, Queensgate’s NanoSensor product portfolio comprises an established family of non-contact position measuring systems (the NX series) based on the principle of capacitance micrometry. Two ...

A supplier of nano-positioning systems for Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is using non-contact capacitive displacement sensors from Micro-Epsilon to measure the travel distance of test items down to ...
