A voltage sensor is a sensor that is used to calculate and monitor the amount of voltage in an object and to feel the measured voltage. And it can convert voltage into output signal. There are two main types of voltage sensors: capacitive voltage sensors and resistive voltage sensors.
Today we will introduce what is a voltage sensor and its working principle and function. We hope that after reading this article, you will have a clearer understanding of voltage sensors.
A voltage sensor is a sensor that senses the voltage being measured and converts it into a usable output signal. In various automatic detection and control systems, voltage sensors, often need to track and collect high-speed changing AC and DC voltage signals.
A sensor is a detection device. The sensor can sense the measured information, and can transform the sensed information into electrical signals or output other required information forms according to certain rules. In this way, sensors meet the requirements of information transmission, processing, storage, display, recording and control.
The characteristics of the sensor include: miniaturization, digitization, intelligence, multi-function, systematization and networking. It is the first part to realize automatic detection and automatic control. The existence and development of sensors allow objects to have senses such as touch, taste, and smell, and make objects slowly become alive.
The application of sensors involves machinery manufacturing, industrial process control, automotive electronics, communication electronics, consumer electronics and special equipment. There are various kinds of voltage sensors, and based on the measuring principle can be divided into Hall voltage sensors, photoelectric isolated voltage sensors, electrically isolated voltage sensors, voltage transformers and so on. Voltage sensors are able to sense the measured voltage and convert it into a usable output signal. In a variety of automatic detection and control systems, voltage sensors often track and collect AC and DC voltage signals that change at high speed. The signals may be high voltage, high current, or weak power with poor load capacity. In these cases, it is necessary to use suitable voltage sensors to collect voltage signals that cannot be directly measured or mismatched, so as to obtain standardized and electrically isolated voltage signals. ATO offers a full range of voltage sensors with different measuring ranges at favorable prices.
