    The document discusses different types of sensors, including contact and non-contact sensors. It describes components that can act as inputs or outputs, such as relays and timers. It explains that sensors can be configured as NPN or PNP, with NPN sensors making a circuit connection to ground and PNP sensors making a connection to a positive terminal. Diagrams show examples of NPN and PNP sensor configurations in sinking and sourcing modes. The document also describes an experiment using two proximity sensors to latch and unlatch a circuit.

    SENSOR

    VARIOUS TYPES OF SENSOR:


    1. NON CONTACT - PROXIMITY( CAPACITIVE, INDUCTIVE,
    PHOTOSENSOR, MAGNETIC/REED)
    - INFARED, RTD,THERMISTOR, ETC
    2. CONTACT SENSOR- LIMIT SWITCH, ROLLER SWITCH ETC
    COMPONENTS THAT BEHAVE AS
    OUTPUT AND INPUT.
    • Eg. RELAY, TIMER SWITCH, SENSOR

    FUNCTION: TO MAKE/BREAK THE COMMON TERMINAL WITH

    EKSPERIMENT 4:

    Proximity Proximity
    Sensor 1 Sensor 2

    Proximity Sensor 1: START to energize CR1


    1st Contact Relay 1 (R11): Act as latching/ holding cct.
    2nd Contact Relay 1 (R12): to switch on the indicator light
    Once the proximity sensor 2 active: CR2 energized
    Immediately 1st Contact Relay 2(R21 which is NC) will brake the latch circuit and will deenergized CR1
    At the same time The contact R12 will open and switch of the indicator light.
