Capacitive Thickness Gauges and Displacement Gauges: Frequently Asked Questions
Question number FAQ-0144
I want to measure to the very edge of the object using the VE series gap detector, but how far can it measure?
The area required for measurement is the same as the sensor's diameter, so measurement can be performed within the range where the sensor does not extend beyond the object being measured. If the sensor extends beyond the object, the measured value will be greater than the actual distance.
