Exploring the Functions of Ultrasonic Sensors
WEBApr 29, 2021 · Ultrasonic sensors are often used for a broad range of non-contact proximity, presence, or distance measuring applications. Such devices generally send a brief pulse of ultrasonic sound toward a specific target, where the sound is reflected back to the sensor. The system subsequently quantifies the time for the echo to go back to the sensor and ...
How Does a Fuel Level Sensor Work?
WEBMar 26, 2019 · Fuel level sensors allow vehicle operators to monitor fuel consumption and determine when to refill the tank. A fuel level sensor consists of two main components: the sensing system itself (also known as the sender) and the indicator (also commonly referred to as the gauge). Fuel level sensors work by measuring the voltage across a variable ...
An Introduction to Thermopile Detectors - AZoSensors
WEBA thermopile detector is a passive radiation sensing voltage-generating device. It does not emit any radiation and require cooling or bias. Dexter Research Center (DRC) provides stable, high output radiation sensing thermopile detectors covering linear dynamic range from the UV to long wave IR. The spectral absorption of DRC detectors is flat ...

Automotive Airbag Sensors
WEBJul 27, 2012 · The sensor is positioned inside the engine and a similar safety sensor is located inside the passenger zone of the vehicle. This safety sensor is required to measure the intensity of the collision to determine whether the impact is over a certain threshold to justify the release of an airbag. Both types of sensors (termed inertia sensors) work ...
Accelerator Pedal Position Sensors vs. Throttle Position Sensors
WEBThe accelerator pedal position sensor is also involved in converting the acceleration movement when the pedal is pressed into an electronic signal, which then initiates throttle body control either as opening or closing movements. The accelerator position information is transferred to the throttle actuator control (TAC) module and the ...

What is Oxidation Reduction Potential and How Do ORP Sensors …
WEBNov 2, 2023 · Sponsored by Hamilton Process Analytics Reviewed by Aimee Molineux Nov 2 2023. Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) measures the net voltage potential of excess oxidizers or reducers in a liquid. As it is a less common measurement, it can often be misunderstood. It is also referred to as "Redox" since the sensor measures redox reactions.
