Banner Sensors – the measuring principle of fiber optic sensors
(1) The principle of physical optical fiber sensor, which uses the sensitivity of optical fiber to environmental changes to convert the input physical quantity into a modulated optical signal. Its working principle is based on the optical modulation effect of optical fibers, that is, the optical fiber's response to external environmental factors, such as temperature, pressure, electric field, ...

Banner Sensors – Classification and application of sensors
1. Resistive sensors
The basic principle of a resistive sensor is to convert the measured change into a change in the resistance value of the sensing element, and then turn it into an electrical signal output through the conversion circuit. Applications: 1. Strain resistance sensor, used to measure tensile and compressive stress, and other physical quantities based on this...

Banner - Talking about the differences between RTU, ASCII, and TCP in the Modbus protocol
Modbus is an application-layer protocol that defines a data unit (ADU) that is independent of the underlying network and can communicate over Ethernet (TCP/IP) or serial links (RS232, RS485, etc.) (Ethernet ADUs and serial ADUs are slightly different). On a serial link, the Modbus protocol has two ...

What problems do Banner laser distance sensors have that need to be solved?
(1) When the target to be measured is not perpendicular to the transducer of the sensor. This is because the target of the ultrasonic test must be within an angle of no more than 10° perpendicular to the sensor.
(2) When a small beam diameter is required. Because the diameter of the general ultrasonic beam is ...

Banner Sensors - Introduction to the applications and characteristics of various types of sensors
1. Resistive type
A resistive sensor is a device that converts measured physical quantities such as displacement, deformation, force, acceleration, humidity, temperature, etc. into resistance values. There are mainly resistive strain, piezoresistive, thermal resistance, thermal, gas-sensitive, moisture-sensitive and other resistive sensing.

Banner Sensors – The basic building blocks of fiber optic sensors
There are three basic components of a fiber optic sensor network, one of which is called a single-point sensor. An optical fiber only plays the role of transmission here, and the other is called a multi-point sensor, where an optical fiber strings many sensors together, so that many sensors can share a light source to achieve networking.

Banner E-STOP Button – The reason why E-STOP buttons use normally closed contacts
1. Action time
The time from closed to open of normally closed contact is much shorter than the time of normally open contact from natural state to closed, which is particularly important when emergency stop is required in the event of danger.

Classification of Banner photoelectric sensors and how they work
(1) Fork photoelectric sensor
Placing an optical transmitter and a receiver facing each other on either side of a slot is a fork photoelectric. The luminaire emits infrared or visible light, and the light receiver receives the light in an unobstructed condition. But when the detected object passes through the slot, the light is blocked ...
