SparkFun Proximity Sensor Breakout
20cm, VCNL4040 (Qwiic)
-
The SparkFun Proximity Sensor Breakout is a simple IR presence and ambient light sensor utilizing the VCNL4040. This type of sensor is often seen in automatic towel and soap dispensers or automatic faucets. With the ability to detect objects qualitatively up to 20cm away, you will be able to detect if something is there and if it is closer or further away since the last reading. Utilizing our handy Qwiic system, no soldering is required to connect it to the rest of your system. However, we still have broken out 0.1"-spaced pins in case you prefer to use a breadboard.

Utility Locator
VM-810
-
Using the correct frequency makes a world of difference when locating buried utilities. The depth of the utility, size, material, and amount of congestion (proximity of other utilities) all need to be taken into consideration for the correct frequency selection. Large diameter, direct buried pipes with bell housing ends that use insulators and rubber gaskets, such as water or gas require a higher frequency while smaller diameter, well-grounded direct buried or long distance in conduits work, better with a lower frequency. The VM-810 operates at 83.1kHz which is ideal for water and gas utilities which generally are larger pipes with bell housings and gaskets. The VM-810’s higher frequency is also good for locating ungrounded small diameter drop wires and inducing signals through the soil, onto services when direct connecting is not an option.

Ultrasonic Sensing
-
Ultrasonic sensing is the measurement of the time between an ultrasonic signal being sent and received. The interval between these two signals is typically referred to as time-of-flight (ToF) and depends on the distance the ultrasonic wave travels until it is reflected due to an impedance change and the speed of the ultrasonic wave. The basic equation time = distance / speed can be used to measure fluid level, fluid identification/concentration, flow, or proximity.

The BathyCorrometer is a diver-held unit which will measure the corrosion potential at specific contact points. Although the readings are visible to the diver, a Surface Display Unit can be supplied to verify readings on board a ship or diving platform. If Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) are being used, the UCP1A contact probe or UCP1B proximity probe can be easily installed to carry out corrosion surveys. Simple surveys of marine structures can be carried out by the use of a Marine Survey Kit (see the case study on Dover Harbour Board).

Inductive Sensors
-
Inductive Proximity Switches, self contained, depend on the output of an oscillator for their operation. The oscillator resonant circuit uses an open core coil to produce a concentrated high frequency electromagnetic (RF) field, which emerges from the active surface of the sensor. If a metal target (or other electrically conductive material) enters this field, eddy currents will be induced in it, causing the resonating oscillator to be damped.
