Inductive proximity sensors


Inductive proximity sensors are available in a variety of sizes and configurations to meet
varying applications. The sensor incorporates an electromagnetic coil which is used to detect
the presence of a conductive metal object. The sensor will ignore the presence of an object if
it is not metal.

Figure 4.22 Inductive proximity sensor

This type of sensor consists of four elements: coil, oscillator, trigger circuit, and an output.
The oscillator is an inductive capacitive tuned circuit that creates a radio frequency. The
electromagnetic field produced by the oscillator is emitted from the coil away from the face of
the sensor. The circuit has just enough feedback from the field to keep the oscillator going.

Figure 4.23 Inductive sensor operation

When a metal target enters the field, eddy currents circulate within the target. This causes a
load on the sensor, decreasing the amplitude of the electromagnetic field. As the target
approaches the sensor the eddy currents increase which is increasing the load on the oscillator
and further decreasing the amplitude of the field. The trigger circuit monitors the oscillator’s
amplitude and at a predetermined level switches the output state of the sensor from its normal
condition (on or off). As the target moves away from the sensor, the oscillator’s amplitude
increases. At a predetermined level the trigger switches the output state of the sensor back to
its normal condition (on or off). The basic operating voltage ranges are from 10 to 30 VDC,
15 to 34 VDC, and 10 to 65 VDC. The rated sensing distance (Sn) is ranged from 0.6 mm to
75 mm depending on the sensor type.
Sensor jarak induktif tersedia dalam berbagai ukuran dan konfigurasi untuk memenuhi berbagai
aplikasi. Sensor menggabungkan kumparan elektromagnetik yang digunakan untuk mendeteksi
keberadaan benda logam konduktif. Sensor akan mengabaikan kehadiran obyek jika tidak
logam. Jenis sensor terdiri dari empat elemen: coil, osilator, memicu sirkuit, dan sebuah output.
Osilator adalah kapasitif induktif disetel sirkuit yang menciptakan frekuensi radio. Medan
elektromagnetik yang dihasilkan oleh osilator dipancarkan dari kumparan jauh dari wajah
sensor. Rangkaian memiliki umpan balik cukup dari lapangan untuk menjaga osilator pergi.
Ketika target logam memasuki lapangan, arus eddy beredar dalam target. Hal ini menyebabkan
beban pada sensor, penurunan amplitudo medan elektromagnetik. Sebagai target mendekati
sensor arus eddy peningkatan yang meningkatkan beban pada osilator dan selanjutnya
penurunan amplitudo lapangan. Pemicu sirkuit memonitor amplitudo osilator dan pada tingkat
yang telah ditentukan switch keadaan output dari sensor dari kondisi normal (on atau off).
Sebagai target bergerak menjauh dari sensor, osilator amplitudo meningkat. Pada tingkat yang
telah ditentukan memicu switch keadaan output dari sensor kembali ke kondisi normal (on atau
off). Rentang tegangan operasi dasar dari 10 sampai 30 VDC, 15-34 VDC, dan 10 sampai 65
VDC. Dinilai jarak merasakan (Sn) berkisar antara 0,6 mm sampai 75 mm, tergantung pada
jenis sensor.
