What Is a Sensor?

A sensor is a device that detects or measures a physical, chemical or environmental condition and converts that information into a usable signal.

Depending on the application, sensors can monitor movement, temperature, pressure, distance, light, humidity, gas, oxygen, vibration, position, flow and other parameters.

For B2B applications, choosing the right sensor depends on factors such as:

• Application and operating environment
• Measurement range
• Accuracy and response time
• Electrical output and compatibility
• Installation requirements
• Environmental conditions
• Required quantity
• Equipment or system compatibility
• Supplier specifications and commercial terms

Types of Sensors Available for B2B Applications

Different industries require different sensor technologies. Kobray's sensor category can help businesses explore products across multiple applications.

Motion and Occupancy Sensors

A motion sensor detects movement within a defined area. PIR sensors, infrared sensors and other motion-detection technologies can be used in security, lighting, automation and building-management applications.

A motion sensor light can activate lighting when movement is detected, helping businesses automate lighting in offices, commercial buildings, warehouses and other facilities.

Temperature Sensors

A temperature sensor measures temperature for monitoring and control applications.

Common options include RTD sensors, thermocouples and other temperature-sensing technologies. Businesses may use them in HVAC systems, manufacturing equipment, process control and industrial environments.

Pressure Sensors

A pressure sensor measures pressure in gases or liquids and can be used in industrial equipment, HVAC systems, pumps and process-monitoring applications.

For businesses requiring ongoing equipment monitoring, selecting the correct pressure range, output and environmental rating is important.

Proximity Sensors

A proximity sensor detects the presence or position of an object without necessarily requiring physical contact.

These sensors can support automation, manufacturing equipment, material handling and machine-control applications.

Ultrasonic Sensors

An ultrasonic sensor uses sound waves to detect objects or measure distance.

They can be considered for applications involving level measurement, object detection, automation and industrial monitoring.

Infrared and IR Sensors

An infrared sensor, also known as an IR sensor, detects infrared radiation or uses infrared technology for sensing and detection.

IR sensors can be used in automation, security, object detection and control systems depending on the product design and specifications.

Light and Photo Sensors

A light sensor, photo sensor, LDR sensor or photocell sensor detects changes in light intensity.

These products can support automated lighting, industrial control systems, equipment monitoring and smart-building applications.

Humidity and Moisture Sensors

A humidity sensor measures moisture levels in air, while moisture sensors can detect moisture in materials or environments.

For agriculture and environmental monitoring, businesses may also consider soil humidity sensors and soil moisture sensors.

Gas and Air-Quality Sensors

Businesses can source gas-related sensing solutions for applications involving air monitoring and environmental conditions.

Product types may include:

• Gas sensors
• CO sensors
• CO2 sensors
• Air quality sensors
• Air pollution sensors
• Oxygen sensors

The correct sensor should be selected according to the gas being detected, required measurement range, operating environment and system requirements.

Water and Level Sensors

A water sensor or water level sensor can help detect the presence or level of water or other liquids.

Level sensors and level detector sensors can be relevant to tanks, industrial equipment, water-management systems and automated monitoring applications.

Flow Sensors

A flow sensor measures the movement of liquids or gases through a system.

They can be used in industrial processes, HVAC, water systems and equipment monitoring where flow measurement is required.

Automotive Sensors

Automotive businesses can source different sensor types for vehicle systems, diagnostics and replacement applications.

These can include:

• MAF sensors
• MAP sensors
• Oxygen/O2 sensors
• Crankshaft position sensors
• Camshaft position sensors
• Knock sensors
• VVT sensors
• Throttle position sensors
• Intake air temperature sensors
• Coolant temperature sensors
• ABS sensors
• Steering angle sensors
• Speed sensors
• TPMS and tyre pressure sensors
• Parking sensors

Automotive sensor selection should be based on vehicle compatibility, part specifications and the intended application.

IoT Sensors

IoT sensors collect information that can be transmitted to connected systems for monitoring, automation and data-driven operations.

Depending on the project, businesses may combine temperature, humidity, pressure, occupancy, motion, light, air-quality and other sensors with IoT platforms.

This can support smart buildings, industrial monitoring, asset tracking, agriculture and other connected applications.
