The HySense® RS 110 is an optical speed sensor that uses reflective mark detection. This method makes it
possible to obtain particularly accurate and reliable measurements, since the measured results are not affected
or distorted by the rotor’s material or shape. Moreover, the available mounting base ensures that the sensor can
be installed on metal surfaces easily and quickly.
How it works
This sensor works with a pulsing red light (LED) that is reflected by a special mark on the rotating part.
A polarizing filter makes sure that only reflected light pulses will be evaluated and that disruptive reflections
(e.g., unevenness on the surface, shiny metal parts, keyways, and high-contrast areas) will not be detected.
Typical applications:
I Determining the hydraulic efficiency of pumps
I Speed measurements on fans for hydraulic cooling units
