Sensorphil
Braided structure with integrated electrodes
- textile sensor for detection of liquids, e. g. water, sweat, urine
- fast response of the sensor
- drying time is greatly affected by the environment and the type of the liquid
- suitable for continuous monitoring
- usable over multiple wetting cycles
- durable under a wide range of environment conditions
- protection by braided sheath
- good mechanical behavior, e. g. bending, load and elongation
VALUES AND DATA:
- good thermal stability between – 25°C and 100°C and up to 85 % RH
- production length, max. 250 m
- maximum sensor length depends on application, approx. 50 m are recommended
- threshold of detection at 0.2 μl
- can be laid with a bending radius of 2.5 mm and over a large surface
- only for alternating current (AC) power source operation
- voltage range: 5 V (effective value)
- ampere range: 0.01 A (effective value)
APPLICATION FIELDS:
