conductor
A capacitor can be constructed by having two conducting plate with two dielectric layers and rolling them up. The rolling part can make the capacitor build in compact size.
CONT
Apply a potential difference across the two plate of the capacitor electrical field will start to built up between the conducting plates It will start to store electrical energy until the potential difference across capacitor is equal to the power supply
CHARGE OF CAPACITOR
ELECTRIC FIELD
Two plate of capacitors put side by side. The potential difference is applied to the two plate of capacitor, electrical field exists.
C is the capacitance in Farads (F) product of permittivity of dielectric and permittivity of free space d distance between two conducting plates A is the surface area of each plate.
DISTANCE
The distance between two plates of capacitor is inversely proportional to the capacitance value.
EFFECT OF DIELECTRIC
Dielectric is an insulator between the two conducting plate. Electrical field exist when dielectric have different potential value. Electric charges can be stored.
CONT
Dielectric constant is directly proportional to the capacitance value. Materials with higher dielectric constant value are easy to sense.
When the water level increase, the dielectric of water will increase. But dielectric of air or gas decrease. The dielectric is directly proportional to capacitance value.
CONT
There are two types of material that gives different value of capacitance. 1. conductive material 2. non-conductive material
CONT
CONDUCTIVE
NON-CONCDUCTIVE
Conductive material will counter the electrical field When the distance increase, the electric field decrease and the capacitance decrease.
PROXIMITY SENSOR
As non-conductive material go through the electrical field, it will be seen as an insulator (dielectric) which change the capacitance value of the capacitive sensor, thus the nonconductive material presence can be detected.
CONT
Affected by two things: 1) The distance between the probe and a grounded surface 2) The dielectric constant of the material between the probe and the grounded surface.
ADVANTAGES
More reliable than mechanical sensor No moving part- there is no wear or tear Less expensive Can detect metal and non-metal
DISADVANTAGES
Dirty or wet environment Large gap between sensor and target is required Very sensitive to environment and noise.
CONCLUSION
Capacitive sensors are widely used especially in industry. Capacitive sensor can detect anything change in capacitance or anything related to capacitor effect. Capacitive sensor more reliable than mechanical button Less expensive Have 3 effect that influence capacitance value. 1. dielectric 2. distance 3. area
