Definition of Terms
Nominal (or rated) sensing distance Sn:
The rated operating distance for which the sensor is designed. It does not take into account
manufacturing tolerances, or any change in supply voltage, temperature, etc... during
operation. Used for selection and base for exact calculations.
Real sensing distance Sr:
The real sensing distance is measured at rated voltage (Un) and at the rated ambient
temperature (Tn). It must be between 90% and 110% of the real sensing distance: 0.9Sn ≤ Sr
≤ 1.1Sn.
Usable sensing distance Su:
The usable sensing distance is measured at the limits of the permissible variations of the
ambient temperature (Ta) and the supply voltage (Ub). It must be between 90% and 110% of
the real sensing distance: 0.9Sr ≤ Su ≤ 1.1Sr.
Operating zone Sa (usable sensing range):
The operating zone is between 0 and 81% of the nominal sensing distance Sn:
0 ≤ Sa ≤ 0.81Sn
This is the operating zone of the sensor and corresponds to the area within which detection
of the standard metal target is certain whatever the variations in voltage or temperature.
This is the maximum sensing distance the designer should consider for all applications.
Correction factors should be considered only when conditions preclude the use of the
standard target in the operating temperature and voltage range.
