Electronic sensor placement has several uses, including improving the home and office security and help reduce energy consumption, especially the lighting, the room is empty. Captains usually combine sensor motion detector with an electronic timer and light button to turn on and turn off lights when they are not needed. For safety, they can be connected to an alarm. Learn more about the 6 types of sensor placement described below.

Captain Sensor Type

Three types of motion detectors: IR emitter (PIR), ultrasonic emitters and microwave passive, coupled with various devices to make the 6 types of occupancy sensors.

Passive Infrared (PIR) Detector

PIR detectors, the simplest type, had the face of the sensor that measures the air temperature in different rooms. PIR sensors are considered passive because they do not emit any light, sound or heat. Computerized sensors in the sensor compares the average room temperature with the increase in heat that occurs when a man walked past the sensor. PIR detector sends a signal to turn on lights when someone in the room. After returning to the values of the average room temperature, the control signal goes to the light to turn off the lights.

A time delay relay is equipped with a type of shock absorber that does not allow full power will flow. Delayed Power and allowed to flow slowly within or outside the coil. Here are some of the time delay relay, which is used primarily in industrial environments.

1 – Timing Belt Conveyor

If the plant is equipped with a number of conveyor belts, the time delay relay will need to make them work better. As you know, the goods transported from one place to another on the conveyor belt in a factory, but the belt does not operate directly as soon as you have to press the start button. A time delay relay conveyor belt speed is reduced until the goods are carried by conveyor belt to get there first will come at the right point of time.

Also, the time delay relay, helping to launch a conveyor belt at a time in the opposite direction, but switch on the conveyor belt to date. This is done to the goods being transported by conveyor belt will not get piled up or stuck on the conveyor belt which is not active or moving slowly.
