1. After the wireless sensor device is installed, it appears to be beating or the number is inaccurate
Reason: There is electromagnetic interference on the site, or the signal line and the power line go to the same trunking.
Solution: The customer's selected product function does not meet the on-site operating conditions, and the transmitter with blocking function needs to be installed or replaced.
2. On the wireless sensor device, it appears that it is at fault or does not appear
Cause: The signal line is faulty in the wiring of the positive and negative levels
Solution: Disconnect the power supply, swap the orientation of the two signal lines, and press it with the terminals to power it from the beginning. In particular, PT100 RTD sensors with a three-wire output without a transmitter often present this problem when installed in the field.
3. The value displayed after the use of the wireless liquid level sensor remains unchanged
Cause: Water ingress in the trachea
Solution: Return to the factory for maintenance, drain the water in the air duct, mark the range from scratch, and then use.
4. The temperature sensor has no signal output
Reason: When the worker is in the device, because he does not understand the sensor, he uses too much force, which causes the pin of the temperature measuring element to be pulled out entirely, so that the signal loop is interrupted.
Solution: When installing, just connect the wire on the terminal, without removing the transmitter or magnetic plate, and use the terminal to press the signal lead.
5. It does not appear on the intelligent control instrument device
Reason: The meter parameters are set incorrectly
Solution: Confirm the signal type connected by the wireless sensor, and adjust the input parameters of the intelligent control instrument according to this type.

What are the typical designs of torque sensors – ifm
Unlike load cells or force transducers, the measuring body of a torque transducer is not subjected to a tension load when used, but is torsionally affected by lever torque or torque. Therefore, torque sensors require special strain gauges to measure this type of load, i.e. torque. Canon...

The reason why the output signal of the photoelectric sensor is unstable
Photoelectric switch (photoelectric sensor) is the abbreviation of photoelectric proximity switch, which uses the shielding or reflection of the beam by the detected object to connect the circuit by the synchronous loop to detect the presence or absence of the object. When the photoelectric sensor outputs the signal, the signal is occasionally unstable, and many people do not know what to do.

Considerations for the selection of industrial sensors
1. According to the measurement object and measurement environment
In order to carry out a specific measurement operation, it is necessary to consider the principle of the sensor first, which requires an analysis of many factors. Since, even for the measurement of the same physical quantity, there are sensors with multiple principles to choose from.

Choice of pressure sensor – ifm
The first step in selecting a pressure sensor is to determine the pressure to be measured. Exciter sensors are divided into mechanical pressure and pneumatic pressure (hydraulic). The mechanical pressure unit is generally N.KN.KGF, etc. The pneumatic and hydraulic units are generally KPA, MPa, PSI, etc. This article describes the selection of mechanical pressures.
