German elcont sensor elcont model elcont price

elcont sensors are measurement feedback devices that operate based on the optical principle of gratings. Grating scales are frequently used in the closed-loop servo systems of CNC machine tools and can be used for detecting linear or angular displacement. The measurement output signal is a digital pulse, characterized by a large detection range, high detection accuracy, and fast response speed. For example, in CNC machine tools, they are often used to detect the coordinates of tools and workpieces to observe and track tool path errors, thereby compensating for tool motion errors. According to different manufacturing methods and optical principles, grating scales are divided into transmission gratings and reflection gratings. Valve elcont sensor classification

Load cells are classified into 8 types based on conversion methods, including photoelectric, hydraulic, electromagnetic force, capacitive, magnetic pole variation, vibratory, gyroscope, and resistance strain gauge types, with resistance strain gauge being the most widely used. 1) Photoelectric type: Includes grating type and code disk type. Grating sensors convert angular displacement into optoelectronic signals using Moiré fringes formed by gratings. There are two gratings: one fixed grating and one moving grating mounted on the dial shaft. The measured object placed on the load-bearing platform rotates the dial shaft through a force transmission lever system, driving the moving grating to rotate and causing the Moiré fringes to move. Using phototubes, conversion circuits, and display instruments, the number of moved Moiré fringes can be calculated to measure the angle of grating rotation, thereby determining and reading the mass of the measured object. Code disk sensors: The code disk (symbol plate) is a piece of transparent glass mounted on the dial shaft, featuring black and white codes arranged according to a specific encoding method. When the measured object on the load-bearing platform rotates the dial shaft via the force transmission lever, the code disk also rotates by a certain angle. Photocells receive light signals passing through the code disk and convert them into electrical signals, which are then digitally processed by the circuit, finally displaying the number representing the measured mass on the display. Photoelectric sensors were mainly used in electromechanical combination scales. 2) Hydraulic type: When subjected to the gravity P of the measured object, the pressure of the hydraulic oil increases, with the degree of increase proportional to P. By measuring the increased pressure value, the mass of the measured object can be determined. Hydraulic sensors have a simple and robust structure and a large measurement range, but the accuracy generally does not exceed 1/100. 3) Capacitive type: It operates based on the proportional relationship between the oscillation frequency f of the capacitor oscillator circuit and the distance d between the plates. There are two plates, one fixed and the other movable. When the measured object is loaded onto the load-bearing platform, the leaf spring deflects, changing the distance between the two plates, which in turn changes the oscillation frequency of the circuit. By measuring the change in frequency, the mass of the measured object on the load-bearing platform can be calculated. Capacitive sensors consume little power, have low cost, and have an accuracy of 1/200 to 1/500.

elcont sensor features

Resistors, inductors, and capacitors are the three major types of passive components in electronics. Capacitive sensors convert changes in the measured quantity into changes in capacitance; essentially, they are capacitors with variable parameters. Capacitive sensors have the following advantages: high impedance, low power consumption, and requiring only very low input energy. They can achieve large change magnitudes, resulting in high signal-to-noise ratio and system stability. Fast dynamic response, with operating frequencies reaching several megahertz. Non-b contact measurement; the measured object can be either a conductor or a semiconductor. Simple structure and strong adaptability, capable of working in harsh environments such as high/low temperatures and strong radiation, with wide application. With the development of electronic technology and computer technology, the disadvantages of capacitive sensors, such as susceptibility to interference and distributed capacitance, have been continuously overcome. Furthermore, capacitive grid displacement sensors and integrated capacitive sensors have been developed. Therefore, they are widely used in non-electrical quantity measurement and automatic detection, capable of measuring parameters such as pressure, displacement, speed, acceleration, A degree, thickness, liquid level, humidity, vibration, and component content. Capacitive sensors have good development prospects.

elcont sensor installation precautions

1) Handle load cells with care, especially small-capacity sensors using aluminum alloy as the elastic body. Any impact or drop caused by vibration is likely to cause significant output errors. 2) When designing the loading device and during installation, ensure that the axis of the applied load coincides with the force axis of the load cell to minimize the effects of tilted and eccentric loads. 3) Regarding level adjustment. If using load cells, the installation plane of their bases must be adjusted with a spirit level until horizontal. If multiple sensors are used for simultaneous measurement, their base installation surfaces should be kept on the same horizontal plane as much as possible. The main purpose of this is to ensure that the force borne by each sensor is basically consistent. 4) Determine the rated load of the sensor used based on the load cell capacity selection specified in its instructions. 5) To prevent chemical corrosion, it is advisable to coat the outer surface of the load cell with Vaseline during installation. Avoid use in locations with direct sunlight exposure and drastic environmental temperature changes. 6) Connect bypassers made of copper braided wire to both ends of the load cell loading device. 7) Do not extend the cable yourself. If extension is absolutely necessary, solder the joints and apply moisture-proof sealant. 8) It is best to use baffles to cover the sensor around the load cell. This prevents debris from falling into the moving parts of the sensor, which could affect its measurement accuracy. 9) Sensor cables should be kept away from high-power power lines or places with pulse waves. If avoidance is impossible, the load cell cables should be run separately through iron pipes, and the connection distance should be shortened as much as possible. 10) Determine the rated load of the sensor used based on the load cell capacity selection specified in its instructions. Although load cells have a certain overload capacity, such situations should be avoided during installation and use. Sometimes, short-term overloading can cause permanent damage to the sensor. 11) For high-precision applications, the load cell and instrument should be used after preheating for 30 minutes.
