Distance Sensors - Functionality & How They Work
Distance sensors do not only measure the interval between the sensor and an object: A distance measurement sensor can determine fill levels, measure the dimensions of objects, check the positions of vehicles or objects and avoid collisions by detecting obstacles. In the industrial sector, more and more companies are using radar sensors for distance measurement. The reason: In comparison to an ultrasonic or laser distance sensor, radar sensors are able to measure reliably even in the presence of steam, smoke, dust, dirt, vibrations or extreme temperatures.

Miniature Piezoelectric Accelerometers
Structured with highly sensitive piezoceramic sensing elements, miniature Ceramic Shear ICP® Accelerometers have an excellent signal-to-noise ratio, high measurement resolution, and are ideal for conducting low-level vibration measurements. Due to their inherent higher sensitivity, a ceramic ICP® accelerometer can be assembled with a smaller mass than comparable quartz units, resulting in a sensor that is lighter in weight, has a higher frequency response, and has a lower noise floor. To further reduce the mass of the sensors, all ceramic shear accelerometers are housed in either tough, lightweight, laser-welded, hermetically sealed, titanium or aluminum housings. By minimizing the mass of the sensor, mass loading effects are reduced, which maximizes the accuracy of the data obtained.
