Electronic Non-Contact Sensing Module With High Accuracy
KISTA, Jan. 25 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
This remote sensing module is capable of measuring distance and velocity with high accuracy. The
measurements are based on radio technology, which has many advantages compared to other methods such
as optic, inductive, capacitive, ultrasonic and mechanical means of measurements.

Typical applications are level gauge measurement, collision avoidance in industrial applications, speed and
distance measurements etc.
The radio based measurement technology is very robust and the method eliminates problems in harsh
environments that inductive, capacitive and mechanical methods suffer from. It is not sensitive to dusty, misty
environments and acoustic layers in ambient air or liquids. Since this is a method of non contact
measurements it does not affect sensitive objects with scratching etc. Also, the modules contain no moving
parts.
The output signal from these units is typically below 100 kHz. It can easily be interfaced to low frequency
processing electronic circuits. Depending on the application, different modules operating at different radio
frequencies are available.
A complete kit for easy evaluation and control of the unit from a PC is available.
The product family consists of
