Product type
Automation sensors are devices that detect and respond to physical stimuli, such as light, temperature, motion, or pressure. They convert these stimuli into signals that can be interpreted by control systems, enabling automated processes in various applications. Typically made from materials like plastic, metal, or silicon, these sensors are integral to smart and IoT systems, enhancing operational efficiency and data collection.
| Sensor types | Proximity, temperature, pressure, light, and motion |
| Output signal | Analog or digital |
| Operating temperature range | -40°C to 85°C |
| Power supply | 5V to 24V DC |
| Communication protocols | I2C, SPI, RS-485, Modbus, and Ethernet |
When selecting automation sensors, consider the specific type of sensor required for your application, such as proximity or temperature sensors. Specify the output signal type, operating temperature range, and any necessary communication protocols. Additionally, check for certifications relevant to your industry and determine the required quantities for your project to ensure compatibility and efficiency.
