Specific Benefits
Although optical sensors still have an important place in
industry, magnetic sensors are proving to be an excellent choice for certain
situations, most notably, places where dirt and grime may enter into the sensor
system. An optical sensor must have a clear line-of-sight to the sensor point
in order to relay accurate speed data, where a magnetic speed sensor can be
covered in all sorts of filth without negatively impacting its accuracy. This
not only allows manufacturers to spend less time and money outfitting the
sensor array with rugged protection, but also allows sensors to be placed in
areas that may have been incompatible with speed sensing equipment. Magnetic
sensors do have a few requirements, but they are easily met. There must be a
specifically sized gap between the ferrous material and the sensor, and this
gap cannot be filled with any type of ferrous debris at the risk throwing off
the speed data.
