Capacitance Sensors
Accumeasure System measurement technology is based on the principle of parallel plate capacitor measurement. TM The electrical capacitance formed between an Accumeasure probe and a target surface varies as a function of the distance (gap) between these two surfaces. Capacitance based measurement probes have long been employed as a means of non-contact measurement of electrically conductive materials. In a typical system, our capacitance probe acts as one of the plates and the grounded target the other plate. amplifier converts the gap’s capacitance into a output voltage proportional to the gap. Capacitive measurements are very stable rivaling interferometer accuracy. The Capacitance is not adversely affected by temperature, humidity and pressure.
