  • Capacitance Sensing Made Easy (.pdf)
    . applications. ii. Range/Standoff Distance. As mentioned above the range of a capacitance sensor is dictated by the diameter, or area, of the sensor. The larger the area,. the larger the measurement range. Measurement range is typically specified starting when the probe is touching the target...
  • Measuring Thickness of Dielectric Materials using MTI AccumeasureTM Capacitance Instrumentation
    = K(A/D) where Cp= the capacitance formed between the face of the capacitance probe sensing element and the target surface; K =the dielectric constant of the air, plus other physical constants; A = the area of the sensing electrode at the face of the probe, and, D = the distance between the sensing...
  • Using the Accumeasure 9000 Capacitance Amplifier to Measure Position and Vibration of Very Small Targets
    most previous capacitance sensors, while still maintaining acceptable levels of standoff distance and sensing range. Application Notes: Non-contact Measurement Sensors, Solutions and Systems - MTI Instruments.   . Using the Accumeasure 9000 Capacitance Transducer Amplifier to Measure Position...
  • Using the Accumeasure 9000 Capacitance Transducer Amplifier to Measure Position and Vibration Displacement of Very Small Targets
    capacitance sensors, while still maintaining acceptable levels of standoff distance and sensing range. This permitted MTI Instruments engineers to design a capacitance sensor with a sensing electrode only .005" wide x .050" long, which when operated with the Accumeasure 9000 amplifier at full sensitivity...
  • Capacitance Sensor System: How a Small Electric Field Can Save You Big Money
    ranges of 1mm or even 2mm. For an assembly operation with limited space, or a target surface with odd angles, this pushing grants the manufacturer the flexibility to use a small probe and still have a sizable measurement range and standoff distance. Small size can be important. Capacitance sensors...
  • Brake Rotor Testing Using Capacitance Sensors
    to monitor the distance between the probe and the rotor while spinning. Unfortunately, rotating targets frequently have an intermittent, uncertain or nonexistent ground path which causes inaccuracies in typical capacitance sensors. The Solution: MTII offers a unique “Push/Pull” Capacitance sensor (see...
  • Capacitance System Monitors Windshield Glass Thickness
    ) measurement range. Although the gap only fluctuated by +/-0.005” (125 µm) the large measurement range allowed for an increased probe operating distance and reduced the probability of probe damage. At 500 Hz frequency response the Accumeasure 1500 resolved measurements to less than 50 µin (1.25 µm...
  • Pressure-transducer options for fluid-power measurements
    . Capacitance strain gages are useful for electronically measuring vacuum or subvacuum pressures. When pressure varies, changes in the distance between two electrodes produce a slight capacitance change, which alters an oscillator frequency. Because full-scale capacitance changes are typically only...
  • Measurement Microphone Handbook
    designs of a telephone handset. A condenser microphone operates on a capacitive design. The cartridge from the condenser. microphone utilizes basic transduction principles and will transform the sound pressure to. capacitance variations, which are then converted to an electrical voltage...
