(CLASSIFICATION)

1. Contact versus Non-contact

• Contact sensor : There is physical contact

betwen the sensor an the parametr it

measures

• Non-contact sensor : Also called

proximity sensors. Proximity indicates that

the object is near, but contact is not

required.

Contact Sensor

Non- Contact Sensor

2. Digital (binary) versus Analog• Digital sensors

– Have two states: on or off

– Detect presence/absence of object

– Counting such as used in a rotary encoder

• Analog sensors

– They sense continuous variables (temp, pressure) and provide a continuous (usuallylinear) voltage or current according to aninput/output transfer function.

– More complex than digital and can providemore information.

Optical (Photoelectric) Sensors

• All optical sensors use light to senseobjects.

• Operation method:- Lasers, Incandescend bulbs, or Light emitting diodes

(LEDs) are used as light source

- The light source is turned off and on (modulation) at a high frequency (could be as hight as several kHz)

- A photodetector senses the pulsed light

- The light emitter and receiver are turned to themodulation frequency.

Example of Sensor using LED as a

light source

Types of Optical Sensors

• Reflective (Diffuse) Sensors

• Retroreflective Sensors

• Thru-beam Sensors

• Polarizing Photo Sensors

• Convergent Photo Sensors

• Fiber Optic Sensors

• Laser Sensors

Reflective (Diffuse) Sensors

T - Transmitter

R - Receiver

Transmitter and receiver are

combined into one casing

Work relies on the reflective surface on the target to

reflect the light from the transmitter to the receiver

T

R

OBJECT

Advantages

• Singular casing (Transmitter + Receiver)

• Objects detection with high reflectparameter (0,6 - 0,9)

Disadvantages

• Low detecting distance

• Sensitive to colour and quality

• Sensitive to background

• Dead zone

Retroreflective Sensors

Transmitter and receiver are combined into one

casing

Make use of a reflector to reflect the light from

the transmitter to the receiver

REFLECTOR

Advantages

• Easy instalation

• Singular casing ( Transmitter + Receiver)

• Good working zone

Disadvantages

• Sensitive to lights objects

• Use reflector

• Dead zone

Thru-beam Sensors

System has a separate transmitter and receiver

It’s capable of sensing very smallobject by narrowing the lightbeam

T R

OBJECT

Advantages

• Detection for long distance

• Lack of dead zone

• Detection light objects

• Detection in several environment

Disadvantages

• Large separate casings

• Problems with instalation ( set- up

Transmitter and Receiver)

Typical Application

• Detecting the presence or absence of an object

• Positioning and counting

• Detection the end of travel of an object

• Packaging machinery

• Sorting and labelling machinery

• Textile machinery

• Pharmaceutical

• Small part detection

• High speed detection

• Door controls

Parameters

- Operating Temperature (10°C - +50°C)

- Vibration

- Supply Voltage (10 – 30 VDC or 230 VAC)

- Detecting Distance

- Output Current

- Max. Switching Frequency

- Degree of Protection

- Hysteresis

Encoders

An encoder is a device that senses a

modification of speed and position and

converts it to a digital value

There are two main types of rotary

encoders:

- Incremental

-Absolute

Principle of working

The light from Light Source shines through the lines on disk

and Grid Assembly and is then sensed by photo detector

Construction of encoder’s disk:

Incremental encoders:

An incremental encoder generates a series of

square waves

Encoders transform rotary movement into a sequence of

electrical pulses

There are two main types of incremental

encoders:

-Tachometer

- Quadrature

Absolute encoder

An absolute encoder provides a word of output with a

qunique pattern that represents each position.

The output is proportional to the angle of the shaft
