However, things can get complicated when there are problems with these sensors. This blog post will delve into automotive sensor technology, analyzing common types, causes of failures, and how to fix them, making it a must-read for every car owner. Common Sensor Types and Their Functions Engine control Unit (ECU) Sensor A...

With the development of air quality monitoring technology, small, low-cost and portable air sensors have been widely used in various environments. These sensors play an important role in monitoring indoor and outdoor air quality, especially in areas with frequent air pollution events, such as wildfires. However, just choosing the right sensor is not enough, how to choose the right placement is also critical, because the location of the sensor directly affects the accuracy and validity of the data....

Dust is ubiquitous in constant activity on construction sites, in vibrating equipment running in manufacturing plants, and even in office environments where paper and machines coexist. These particles, which range in size from micrometers to visible to the naked eye, are produced in a variety of processing processes, such as material stacking, wood carving and plastic molding. The particulate matter released by these activities forms part of the air in our working environment. As a result, particulate...

Formaldehyde is a common volatile organic compound (VOC) and has attracted much attention due to its wide application in various industrial and household products. As a chemical that easily evaporates into a gas at room temperature, volatile organic compounds cause indoor air pollution and pose a potential threat to human health. Among these compounds, formaldehyde is particularly noteworthy for its wide range of uses and potential harm. Therefore, it is particularly important to use a special gas...

The second factor affecting gas sensor readings is ambient temperature and humidity. Most gas sensors are sensitive to changes in ambient temperature. This is because performance parameters of chemical reactions, electronic components, and inorganic or organic materials change with temperature. This ultimately leads to changes in the current and voltage output by the sensor.   What Are the Operating Temperature Ranges of Different Sensors? Non-dispersive infrared sensors (NDIR): NDIR sensors...

An infrared sensor is a common electronic device used to detect and receive infrared radiation. They are widely used in remote control, security monitoring, thermal imaging and other fields. This article will introduce the working principle of infrared sensor and its different types. Working Principles of Infrared Sensor The working principle of infrared sensors is based on the propagation of infrared radiation and its interaction with objects. Infrared radiation is a kind of electromagnetic...

When installing a CO2 (carbon dioxide) monitoring system, proper equipment placement is critical to ensure the integrity of system functionality and the safety of employees. Careful consideration needs to be given to planning the location of the system, the layout of the wires, and the protection of the equipment, and staff should be trained on what to do when they hear an alarm. The CO2 sensor should be installed 12 inches (31 cm) above the ground, and the display of the CO2 monitoring system should...

What factors affect the reading of the gas sensor? This seemingly common problem actually involves a great deal of underlying principles and covers a broad range of topics. When encountering inaccurate gas meter readings, many customers immediately suspect sensor failure. This is not surprising, as gas sensors are not perfect and can indeed experience problems. When faced with such issues, various factors must be checked systematically to identify and resolve the root cause. Avoid prematurely concluding...

In today's automotive industry, the rapid development of technology not only significantly improves driving safety and comfort, but also adds a variety of intelligent functions to respond to different driving environments and needs. As a key technical device, oxygen sensor is of great significance and broad application prospect in automobile oxygen detection system, especially for tired driving and plateau travel. The Basic Function and Principle of Oxygen sensor An oxygen sensor is a device...
