Leaf Wetness Sensors
Campbell Scientific offers two types of leaf wetness sensors to measure the wetness of leaves: surface contact and electrical resistance. Surface contact sensors measure the electrical resistance of a water film on their surface. Electrical resistance sensors imitate the characteristics of leaves and measure the dielectric constant of their upper surfaces.

Rotary Position Sensors
Using the same technology as our linear range but with a printed rotary coil opposed to the wound linear coil our rotary sensors offer the same high performance as the linear sensor range but with shaft driven rotary or gravity driven tilt measurement. The standard P500/P502 rotary sensors can be manufactured with a measurement range anywhere between 5 and 160. We also manufacture miniature rotary sensors such as the P501 and P505 and the P503 flat PCB style version for customer application fitment. Like our linear sensor range our rotary sensors are also customisable should the standard range not accomodate your application.

Position / Distance / Proximity Sensors
Panasonic Industrial Devices Sales Company of America
Easy-to-use Inductive Proximity Sensors provide stable detection for automation, with Sensors for standard to high speed, high performance solutions. These Inductive Proximity Sensors detect the presence and position of ferrous and non-ferrous metal objects and come in a range of IP Ratings (IP50 / 67 / 68 / 68g). The IP68g enclosure allows usage in very harsh environments. For high speed, high accuracy measurement, Laser Measurement Sensors are ideal for the precise measurement of thickness, diameter and height. Panasonic’s HG-C Series CMOS Type Micro Laser Distance Sensors deliver high repeatability for measurement distances (center) of 30mm, 50mm, 100mm, 200mm and 400mm. Ideal to measure insertion depths or thickness, these Sensors can also be used to detect warping, overlaps and presence helpful for preventative maintenance and remote monitoring. Select models are IO-Link compatible for ease of use.

Eddy-Current Sensors
Eddy-Current sensors are noncontact devices capable of high-resolution measurement of the position and/or change of position of any conductive target. Eddy-Current sensors are also called inductive sensors, but generally "eddy current" refers to precision displacement instruments (or nondestructive testing probes) and "inductive" refers to inexpensive proximity switches. High resolution and tolerance of dirty environments make eddy-current sensors indispensable in today's modern industrial operations.

Pulse Characterization Sensors
Pulse Characterization Sensors provide the ability to see and measure the temporal characteristics of pulsed and CW laser beams. Ophir Fast Photodiode Detectors are designed to convert optical signals into electrical signals which are then measured with third-party instrumentation such as oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers. Accessories are available to connect to IS6 integrating spheres or fiber optic cables. Attenuating filter accessories are also available to increase their dynamic range. Different models offer silicon, UV enhanced silicon and InGaAs PIN photodiodes, covering a combined spectral range of 193 nm to 1700 nm. Rise times range from 25 picoseconds to 3 nanoseconds. The fast rise times are achieved by an internal reverse bias voltage circuit. Power is supplied by internal batteries and/or an external power supply depending on the model. Detectors should be connected to a 50Ω impedance in order to maintain their nominal rise times. They can be connected to higher impedance loads, but this will result in a significant increase in the rise time. If higher output voltage is required, it is recommended to connect the detector to a trans-impedance amplifier with an Input impedance of 50Ω
