Working of Capacitance Sensor

  • Configure the sensor parameters width , length ,thickness and dielctric material
  • Calculate the capacitance for change in thickness
  • Submit the answer to capacitance tab and validate
  • Repeat the steps 2 and 3 to get 5 readings
  • Observe sensor output for change in thickness

Thickness measurement of sample sheet

  • Select material of sample sheet
  • Set the output voltage for Air
  • Calculate thickness sensitivity factor for sensor
  • Click on "SHEET" button to place the sample sheet for thickness testing
  • Click on "TEST" button to observe output voltage
  • Calculate sample sheet thickness
  • Enter sheet thickness and validate the answer
