SENSORICS BOARD Type 3840

The SENSORICS BOARD Type 3840 is a training system for sensorics and automation technology with integrated power supply, counter and frequency meter. It conveys the design, principles and application of industrial sensors in practical experiments.

  • Training and instruction system for sensorics and automation technology
  • Built-in power supply with integrated counter and frequency meter
  • Rotary and linear motion with motors for realistic experiments
  • Can be controlled by PLC, PC, TTL signals or manually
  • Clear storage of accessories on a separate board
  • Expandable with ultrasonic, fibre optic, analog and NAMUR sensors

Training Concept

The SENSORICS BOARD provides a training concept that explains the principles, construction and application of industrial sensors through practical experiments.

It is well suited as an introduction for machine builders, mechanics and technicians in control, production and hybrid systems. The selected sensors reflect common market use in control and automation technology.

  • Standard sensor set: inductive sensor, capacitive sensor, optical sensor and magnetic field sensor
  • Options: ultrasonic sensor, fibre optic sensor, NAMUR sensors and analog sensor

Experiment Setup and Mechanics

All parts required for experiments are integrated into the SENSORICS BOARD for fast and clear setup.

Sensors are inserted into a movable carriage that can also be controlled directly. A millimetre scale on the guide rail supports positioning tasks and evaluation.

A motor-driven rotating disc can also be sensed. Both motors are protected by electronic current shut-off.

All accessories are arranged on a separate storage panel. The board can be used on a desk, in a rack or in a box; the box supports secure transport, storage and direct experimentation when opened.

  • Also available in a box version for transport, storage and direct use
