Mutual Interference
- When using two or more sets of sensor of the same frequency type, separate them in the distance shown below more toavoid possible mutual interference.
Precautions During Use
-
The principle of operation of differential capacitance type proximity sensors is an analog output sensor that detects the difference between a reference capacitance inside the sensor and the capacitance of the sensor detection surface.
There are two motion models, the "ground model" in which the capacitance decreases in principle and the “floating model" where the capacitance increases.
The output voltage is set to 1 V at the time of non-detection, and if the detection object has a large capacitive coupling with ground, the ground model is applied and the output voltage increases from 1 V to 5 V .
When the detection object has small capacitive coupling with ground, the floating model is applied if it comes close enough to come into contact with the detection surface, at which time the output voltage falls from 1 V to 0 V. - Never peel off the film on the detection surface as this will prevent capacitance from being detected.
- For other precautions, please refer to "General Precautions" of differential capacitance type proximity sensors.
