Shaft Speed Sensors
-
Electro-Sensors offers many shaft speed sensors for virtually any environment. Our Hall-Effect and Magnetoresistive Sensors sense magnetic targets and work with our magnetic pulsers (Discs, Wraps, and Wheels). Our proximity sensors sense ferrous metal targets, including bolt-heads, screws, gearteeth and keyslots. Our speed sensors monitor shaft speed of equipment and output data as PNP, NPN, or 4-20 mA signals. The sensor data can be used by facilities to monitor machinery and safeguard equipment. Monitoring shaft speed is a fundamental aspect of hazard monitoring and should be utilized by any facility with rotating shafts.

S2 Spectra Sensors
ULP-S2 WBI/V
LED Sensor
The ULP S2 Spectra Sensor tests for LED intensity, and for any color in the visual spectrum, plus white. The S2 Spectra Sensor is well-suited for the test of “boundary” color LEDs, as it can unambiguously and repeatedly distinguish between not only adjacent visual colors such as green and yellow, but it can determine different hues of the same color such as yellow and amber, regardless of LED intensity. Implemented in a unique and customizable 2-Part solution, the S2 Spectra Sensor is assembled with your choice of Fiber-Optic Probe, including for the test of densely-spaced LEDs, bright LEDs, dim or misaligned LEDs, right-angle LEDs, and more, including the popular “Trident” Fiber-Optic Probes to sequentially test 3 LEDs with a single Sensor.Operating temperature range: 0oC to 70oCPower consumption: Operates between +5 and 28 volts D.C., at 6mA max. Less than 4.75 volts is not recommendedVoltage protection: Withstands up to +40 volts, & reverse polarity to -18 voltsOutput Pins: 4 gold-plated standard wire-wrap pins (0.025 in. sq.)Output Loads: ‘Int.’& ‘Color’- 2Kohms min., 100pF max.Sensor Size: 0.560 in. dia x 1.38 in. long.Typical response time: Typical response time: <10mS capture time; <100mS overall response timefor color and intensity simultaneouslyFiber-Optic Probes: Can be paired with any Universal LightProbe Fiber-Optic Probe

Cryogenic Temperature Sensors
Cernox®
-
Cernox® thin film resistance cryogenic temperature sensors offer significant advantages over comparable bulk or thick film resistance sensors. The smaller package size of these thin film sensors makes them useful in a broader range of experimental mounting schemes, and they are also available in chip form. They are easily mounted in packages designed for excellent heat transfer, yielding a characteristic thermal response time much faster than possible, with bulk devices requiring strain-free mounting. Additionally, Cernox sensors have been proven very stable over repeated thermal cycling and under extended exposure to ionizing radiation.

SWIR Image Sensors
-
Though NIR and SWIR act similarly to visible light, they are not visible to the human eye. As a result, these spectrums present valuable information which can show artifacts or damage that would otherwise not be seen. Click here to see some examples of how SWIR is being used in existing applications today.

Multi-Axis Sensors
-
Interface multi-axis sensors are designed to measure multiple forces and moments simultaneously with a single load cell sensor. These sensors provide multiple bridges that precisely measure the applied force from one direction with little or no cross-talk from the force or moment. Our 2-axis, 3-axis, 6-axis, and axial torsion load cells provide the ultimate in force and torque measurement. We can measure forces simultaneously in three mutually perpendicular axes, with the 6-axis load cells also measuring torque around those axes.
