Microsense Sensors For Voyager & Observer Loggers

Description: A high specification ultrasonic range sensor. The unit measures distance by timing an ultrasonic sound moving from the sensor to an object and its echo back to the sensor. It can take up to 20 measurements per second making it suitable for simple harmonic motion experiments with springs etc. It also has a set of rotating LED’s which provide a convenient and simple method of setting up the ranger. The unit is powered from the LogIT data logger.

Range: 200 to 5000mm

Resolution: 1mm

Applications: Simple harmonic motion, distance time graphs and general distance measurements.
