There are three things designers/engineers should seek to do when specifying sensor products. These are: thermal hysteresis, board mounts that are moisture sensitive, and sensors that are A/D convertible. The ability of the sensor to come back to the same output after a thermal change is called thermal hysteresis. Designers underestimate errors due to thermal […]

Four mistakes engineers make designing wireless sensors
With anything that is created, engineers make common mistakes in designing wireless sensors. Four mistakes commonly made are: over complication, using inexpensive technology, power issues, and not factoring global technological certifications. One of the first mistakes when designing wireless sensors is making the sensor/router pairing process too complicated and counterintuitive. Some engineers even make security […]
Wireless non-contact switch reduces maintenance costs
The Limitless non-contact switch WLS series uses non-contact technology, which enables the device to actuate based on the presence or absence of magnets installed on a customer’s device. Therefore its suitable for harsh operating environments. This switch allows customers to choose either top sensing or side sensing. Battery-operated, flexible, and combined with proven harsh-duty packaging, […]
