1. Advantages
(1) Germany SICK flow sensor can be used to measure industrial conductive liquids or slurries.
(2) No pressure loss.
(3) The measuring range is large, and the diameter of the electromagnetic flow transmitter is from 2.5mm to 2.6m.
(4) The flow sensor of SICK in Germany measures the volume flow rate of the measured fluid under the working state, and the measurement principle does not involve the influence of temperature, pressure, density and viscosity of the fluid.
2. Disadvantages
(1) The application of SICK flow sensor in Germany has certain limitations, it can only measure the liquid flow of conductive media, but cannot measure the flow of non-conductive media, such as gas, alcohol and other non-conductive liquids
(2) When the flow sensor of SICK in Germany is used to measure viscous liquid with dirt, the viscous or precipitate adheres to the inner wall of the measuring tube or the electrode, so that the output potential of the transmitter changes, resulting in measurement error, and the dirt on the electrode reaches a certain thickness, which may cause the instrument to be unable to measure.

Steps on how to maintain the Sick sensor
1. It is necessary to prevent the sensor from contacting corrosive gases, so as not to cause corrosion and affect the measurement results.
2. If the measurement is a high-temperature medium, the Sick $ICK sensor should see whether the temperature is within the appropriate temperature range of the sensor.

Causes and solutions for the easy misdetection of SICK color scale sensors
Reasons for false detection: 1. The installation distance is inappropriate
Different from the identification of the reflective intensity of ordinary photoelectric switches, because the color mark sensor recognizes the grayscale contrast, if the measured material is not placed within the detection distance, its sensitivity (grayscale recognition ability) is significantly reduced, and even cannot be ...

How Sick sensors work
SICK sensors are sensors that use a photoelectric element as a detection element. It first converts the measured change into a change in the optical signal, and then further converts the optical signal into an electrical signal with the help of an optoelectronic component. Photoelectric sensors are generally composed of three parts: light source, optical path and optoelectronic components.

Ray of Hope – Sterilized by UV light and nanoScan3
The Chinese start-up Youibot relies on the nanoScan3, a proven mobile platform control solution from SICK, for this purpose. Ultraviolet light is harmful to the skin and eyes, but it is very effective in killing viruses. Therefore, the application of ultraviolet light in space disinfection is very wide, and it is also very successful.

Common faults of SICK sensors
1. The pressure receiver transmitter cannot return to the zero position
The output of the SICK sensor does not change, and the output of the repressurized transmitter changes suddenly. Once the sensor is tightened, the sealing ring is compressed to the sensor pressure port to block the sensor. When pressure is applied, the pressure medium cannot ...

Sick Sensors – The system composition of ultrasonic sensors
Transmitter: An oscillator (usually ceramic, about 15 mm in diameter) vibrates to generate ultrasonic waves and radiate them into the air.
Receiver: When the oscillator receives the ultrasonic wave, it generates the corresponding mechanical vibration according to the ultrasonic wave and converts it into electrical energy as the output of the receiver.
