A
cable sensor is a cable construction designed for optimal performance of signal
or data transmission from a sensor, transducer, or transmitter to a control
unit. Such sensors and measuring techniques are intricately connected with each
other. The application range of sensor cables technology is
far-reaching in the thorough analysis of the product characteristics in the
manufacturing industry as well as in the automated production of various
products.
What
are the various benefits of sensor cables?
Sensor
cables are often designed by keeping a specific application in mind. There is a
plethora of applications for sensor cables and variations by industry. Many of
the sensors are used across a wide variety of applications that measure changes
in pressure, acceleration, force, strain, etc.
There
is a wide range of update rates and frequency responses available for wired
sensors. Another benefit is it has a negligible effect on frequency response if
a wired sensor is moved away whereas a wireless sensor will have a degraded
response to maintain increasing noise levels. Wired sensors also, do not
require a lot of power to operate and can even operate at low dc voltage to
correctly measure vibration.
Applications
of sensor cables:
- Position
sensors - construction equipment, building control, etc.
- Vibration
sensors - automotive measurement in critical applications.
- Traffic
sensors - Vehicle classification, speed, and red-light detection, etc.
- Temperature
- Measurement of temperature in several ambient environments.
