Description

The Flex Sensor – 2.2 Inches is a versatile and innovative component that serves as a bendable variable resistor with a length of 2.2 inches. This sensor operates by changing its resistance as it is flexed, with the resistance across the sensor increasing correspondingly. The technology used in this flex sensor is patented by Spectra Symbol, indicating a high level of quality and reliability in its design and functionality. Notably, the resistance of the flex sensor alters when the metal pads are positioned on the outside of the bend, underscoring its sensitivity to changes in bending angles.

Designed for ease of use and compatibility with various applications, the Flex Sensor 2.2 Inches comes with a connector that is spaced at 0.1 inches, making it breadboard friendly and suitable for seamless integration with other electronic components. This feature enhances its usability and flexibility in a wide range of projects across different industries. The sensor has a flat resistance of 25K Ohms with a resistance tolerance of ±30%, providing a reliable and consistent performance in diverse environments.

In terms of specifications, the Flex Sensor 2.2 Inches offers a bend resistance range of 45K to 125K Ohms, showcasing its capacity to adapt to different bending angles and motions. The sensor has a power rating of 0.50 Watts continuous and 1 Watt peak, ensuring it can handle varying power requirements effectively. Additionally, its temperature range of -35°C to +80°C allows for operation in different temperature conditions, adding to its versatility and applicability in a wide array of settings.

The Flex Sensor 2.2 Inches is particularly suitable for applications that involve angle displacement measurement, bending, and flexing in response to motion. These characteristics make it an ideal choice for use in robotics, gaming for virtual motion detection, computer peripherals, and various other fields requiring accurate and real-time motion sensing capabilities. Its simple construction and reliable performance make it a valuable component for projects that necessitate precise and responsive sensor technology.

It is important to handle the Flex Sensor 2.2 Inches with care, especially at the base, to prevent strain or damage. While the sensor can withstand bending within its usable range, caution should be exercised to avoid excessive flexing beyond its limits. By securely mounting the base and bottom portion and allowing only the flex sensor itself to bend, optimal performance and longevity of the sensor can be ensured.

Overall, the Flex Sensor offers a reliable, sensitive, and adaptable solution for motion detection and angle measurement purposes. With its patented technology, durable construction, and wide range of applications, this flex sensor stands out as a valuable component in the realm of sensor technology, catering to the needs of various projects that demand precise and effective motion sensing capabilities.
