1.0 INTRODUCTION
In the industrial world, it is important to control the process to ensure that it runs smoothly and
the products or outputs are in the best condition. To instigate process control, the controller
must collect data from the outside environment and transmit signals to the production process.
Components required to apply this interface are input devices, signal conditioning circuits,
analog-to-digital converters (ADC) or digital-to-analog converters (DAC) and output devices.
Input devices can be defined as the devices used to acquire data or information in
forms of signals from the outside environment so that it can be processed with computerized
controller. The input devices are categorized into three types, which are transducer, sensor
and transmitter.
On the other hand, a transducer is defined as a device which converts one form of
energy to another (Kissel, 1997). A transducer may include a sensor to sense the measurands,
and a circuit to convert the amount of measurands to an electrical signal and transmit it to an
electrical control system where it is used as the process variable (PV) or feedback signal.
Another type of input devices is transmitter. A transmitter is a device that can transform
a very small signal to a more usable signal. The transmitters for the sensors used as industrial
feedback signals must typically convert very small electrical signals such as microvolts (µV),
millivolts (mV), milliamps (mA) or frequency into larger voltage and current signals such as 0-
10 volts or 4-20 mA. The transmitter usually uses devices such as operational amplifiers (op
amp) to amplify the output signal. The transmitter may also provide a zero and span circuit
that allows the signal to be calibrated with other parts of the electrical system such as the
single-point controller.
Sensors are built to detect the smallest amount of change in motion, light, pressure,
temperature, magnetic force, or chemical reaction. The change of energy that the sensor
senses must be changed into an electrical signal that is useful to an amplifier so that the final
electrical signal is in one of the computer-understandable format. Typically, electrical signal
formats are voltage, current, resistance, frequency, capacitance and inductance. In some
cases, a transmitter will provide additional signal conditioning, such as from voltage to current,
from current to voltage or frequency to voltage.
As most sensors provide a very small signal, it must be amplified or compared before
it is being used. The bridge circuit is utilized to compare the signal to some setpoint (SP) value
and the op amp circuit is used to amplify any sensor signal that is too small. The Figure 1
below shows a temperature sensor called resistive temperature detector (RTD) and it is
connected to a bridge circuit. The variable resistor in the bridge is regulated to provide a SP.
If the temperature varies, the resistance in the RTD will change in proportion and the voltage
through the bridge will reflect this variation. Since the temperature can vary, the voltage at the
bridge can fluctuate to either positive or negative.
Another circuit that is commonly used with sensors is the op amp circuit. Because
sensors provide a voltage signal or a change in resistance, the op amp circuit must be able to
amplify either voltage or resistive signals. The Figure 2 below shows the op amp circuit with a
photoconductive cell. The sensor must also have a voltage supply. When light hits the
photoconductive cell, its resistance will vary. Since this resistance is the Rin for the op amp
circuit, it will change the gain of the op amp when the resistance varies. When the gain of the
op amp changes, it will change the output voltage of the op amp.
The op amp must also be able to amplify signals from sensors that change voltage
rather than resistance. The Figure 3 below shows a circuit with a solar cell (photovoltaic cell)
connected to the op amp circuit. When light strikes the solar cell, it will change voltage, and
the op amp will amplify the small-signal voltage. This is the typical circuit that will be used for
all sensors that produce small voltages.
In this report, we will discuss about the types of sensors that are used in the industries,
how they are constructed and the working principles of the sensors. The second part of this
report will discuss about the case study of input devices in cement manufacturing plant.
Temperature sensors are widely used in building, manufacturing plants such as chemical
process, engines, appliances, computers and many other appliances that require temperature
monitoring. Many physical occurrences depend on temperature, so we can measure the
temperature indirectly by measuring pressure, volume, electrical resistance and strain.
2.1 Thermocouple
Thermocouple is the most widely temperature sensors used in industries. This device ranges
from sub-zero to 2000˚C. This sensor works according to Seebeck Effect which states that if
two wires made from different metals are connected at both ends to make two junctions, when
one end is heated, a small amount of current would flow across the circuit.
Figure 4 Thermocouple
The working principle of thermocouple is that when the measuring junction is heated,
small direct current (DC) voltage (in mV) is generated in thermocouple wires. The
thermocouple converts thermal energy into electrical energy. The cold junction usually is set
to 0˚C.
Resistive Temperature Detector (RTD) is a precision temperature sensor made from high-
purity conducting metals such as platinum, copper or nickel wound into a coil. RTD’s electrical
resistance changes as a function of temperature. Figure 5 below shows RTD that is usually
used in the industries.
The change in temperature is detected when the resistance of the wire varies. There
are two types of RTD, which are RTD that has positive thermal coefficient which will increase
the resistance with respect to temperature increment. The other type of RTD has negative
thermal coefficient which will decrease the resistance when the temperature increases.
RTDs are commonly used with the bridge circuit connection. The change in
temperature causes substantial resistance change which gives a voltage drop in line with the
thermal coefficient of resistance of the wire. This voltage is then amplified and the temperature
is read.
2.3 Thermistor
Figure 6 Thermistors
Thermistors can be classified into two types depending on the sign of first-order
temperature coefficient of resistance. If the coefficient is positive, the resistance rises with
temperature increment. This device is called a positive temperature coefficient (PTC)
thermistor or Posistor. If the coefficient is negative, the resistance drops with temperature
increment, and the device is called a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor.
Integrated Circuit (IC) also able to be used as temperature sensor because it can change the
amount of voltage across PN junction when it is forward biased as the temperature varies.
The semiconductor material provides a compact sensor when it is manufactured into an IC.
The IC sensors are very small and shaped like typical small transistors, which allows them to
be placed in printed circuit boards and other electronic circuits.
2.5 Thermostat
Figure 7 Thermostat
Thermostat functions as the different linear expansion rates of the two dissimilar metals
creates a mechanical bending movement when the strip is subjected to heat. The bi-metallic
strip can be used itself as an electrical switch or as a mechanical way of operating an electrical
switch in thermostatic controls.
Thermostat is widely used to control hot water heating elements in boilers, furnaces,
hot water storage tanks as well as in vehicle radiator cooling systems.
Pressure sensors are widely used in industrial applications for determining the liquid level in
a tank, to measure the flow of liquid and to measure the temperature of an object. There are
many types of pressure sensors available depending on the usage and requirements in the
industries. Each sensor has a pressure range that it operates in. Most of the pressure sensors
have analog outputs that demand amplification and some of them have built-in amplifiers for
direct connection into microcontroller.
A load cell is a force or pressure sensor that utilizes strain gauges which are mounted in
specific patterns to provide a significant value of the change in pressure or weight. Usually,
load cells may be used to measure tension, compression and shear. Figure below shows an
example of load cells used in industrial application.
Load cells are commonly used for mechanical testing, on-going system monitoring and
industrial scales and weighing. Load cells can be categorized into two types, which are
bending beam load cell and shear beam load cell.
Bending beam load cell applies a principle of measuring force on a cantilever beam. It
will have shear stress and bending stress along the cross-sectional area of the beam. The
stress can be measured by strain gauges and converted into an equivalent amount of
pressure. On the other hand, shear beam load cell utilizes an I-beam design because the
shear stress is uniform at the web of the beam.
Flow sensors are used to sense the flow rate of fluid. There are two categories of flow sensors,
which are intrusive (obstructing the flow) and nonintrusive.
The flow sensors are used in the industrial applications as means to measure the flow
of cooling water to a large machine or process. They are also used to indicate when a filter is
clogged and to measure accurately the flow of gases or liquids that are used in processes.
This type of flow sensors obstruct the flow to create a pressure drop. Table 2 below discusses
the types of sensors under this category.
Pitot tube is a device that has two tubes that are placed in a
fluid flow to sense the impact pressure and the static
pressure used to determine the amount of pressure drop.
Two tubes are connected side by side. One of the tubes has
a hole in it that faces the fluid flow, called impact tube, while
the other tube has a hole in it that faces away from the fluid
flow or static tube. The impact tube measures the higher
pressure which is the impact pressure, and the static tube
measures the lower pressure which is the static pressure as
fluid flows past the tube. (Input Devices, 2015)
4. Elbow Meters
This category of flow meters apply the change in velocity that occurs when fluid flow changes
to measure the amount of flow. Table 3 below shows the types of sensors under this category.
This type of flow meter is the most accurate compared to others. In this type of sensor, the
flow is split into segments and each segment is measured as the fluid moves pass it. A type
of positive-displacement flow meter utilizes a piston pump. The volume of the piston is known,
and all of the fluid flows through the piston pump. This lets the total volume of fluid to be
measured by counting the strokes of the piston. Another type of positive displacement flow
meter utilizes a set of oval gears or lobes that pumps a certain volume of fluid each time the
gears mesh. The faster the flow moves, the faster the gears rotate. The number of revolutions
are counted and the flow rate can be calculated because the volume of fluid that is pumped
during each revolution of the lobes is known. Figure 9 below shows a positive displacement
flow meter.
Another type of positive displacement flow meter is the nutating disk. It is a movable disk that
is offset so that it makes a concentric circular motion each time it turns. The housing for the
disk is perfectly round, so that each time the disk rotates, its oval path will trap a certainamount
of fluid. As the volume of trapped fluid is known, the number of revolutions the disk makes can
be counted and the flow rate can be calculated.
A mass flow meter is one of the most accurate type of flow meters that is designed to measure
the flow of gases and liquids. There are two common types of mass flow meters which are
discussed in Table below.
The flow of a liquid is affected by density, viscosity and the temperature of the liquid. Density
is an amount of mass per unit volume and also known as the specific gravity. Specific gravity
is a measurement of the density of a product at a fixed temperature compared to the density
of water. The specific gravity of water is 1.
𝑚
𝜌=
𝑉
Where m is the mass of the liquid and V is the volume. As shown in the formula, the unit for
density is kg/cm3.
𝜌𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑎𝑡 𝑇1
𝑆𝐺𝑡𝑟𝑢𝑒 =
𝜌𝑤𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝑎𝑡 𝑇1
Where ρsample at T1 is the density of the liquid sample at fixed temperature, T 1 and ρwater at T1 is
the density of water at the fixed temperature, T 1.
Density sensor measures the density of the liquid as the liquid flow past a piping system. The
density sensor only test a small portion of the liquid from the piping system. So, it can be
placed in the pipe where the liquid flows to take a sample. Figure below shows a type of
density sensor.
Referring to the figure, usually a sensing chamber of the density sensor is located in
the pipe so that a small portion of the liquid will continually flow through it and the sample can
be measured. The sensing chamber has a totally immersed plummet fastened to a set of
calibrating chains at a few fixed reference points. When the density of the liquid rises, the
liquid will get thicker and the plummet will be lifted slightly. When the density reduces, the
liquid is thinner and the plummet will drop slightly. The change of distance the plummet moves
is measured by a position sensor called a linear variable differential transformer (LVDT). An
RTD is utilized to continually monitor the temperature of the liquid to adjust the reading of the
density.
There is also a signal conditioner used in density sensor to convert and amplify the
signals of both LVDT and RTD to 4-20 mA, 0-5 volts or -5 volt to +5 volt signal. The signals
from the sensor represents the density of the liquid being measured.
Viscosity is the quantitative measure of the fluid’s resistance to flow. The viscosity affects the
speed at which a fluid flows.
Viscosity sensors are used widely in large pipeline operations and tomato paste
production. In both applications, the viscosity must be adjusted and monitored so that the
amount of product flowing can be calculated accurately. Viscosity can be controlled by
regulating the temperature or density of the product.
Figure 11 (a) Rotating disk viscosimeter (b) Differential pressure viscosimeter (c) Vibrating element viscosimeter
The rotating disk viscosimeter has a disk that is revolved at a certain speed. The
amount of torque required by the motor to rotate the disk will increase as the liquid become
more sticky. The second type of viscosimeter is differential pressure viscosimeter, utilizes a
venturi to determine the pressure differential of the liquid flowing across it. When the viscosity
of the product varies, the pressure drop across the venturi will also vary. The vibrating element
viscosimeter uses an component that is vibrated at a certain frequency. The amplitude of the
vibration will rise when the viscosity reduced.
In industrial applications, level sensors are used to measure the quantity of the products in
storage tanks or process tanks. The level sensors are commonly mounted in the storage tanks
and process tanks.
Level sensors have two categories, which are point-contact sensors that determine if
the level is to be measured at a given setpoint, and continuous level sensors measure the
level from minimum to maximum.
There are many types of point-contact sensors available. Mostly, these types of sensors
contain a switch that is activated when the level reaches a specific point. Table 5 below shows
the different types of point-contact sensors.
Point-Contact
No. Working Principles
Sensors
1. Float-Level Sensor
A float is attached to an arm, and the arm will trigger a limit switch
when the arm is elevated. The float will be raised when the level
of the liquid is high enough. The limit switch can be regulated so
that the accurate level where the switch is activated can be set.
2. Multiple Float-Level
Sensor
4. Paddlewheel-Level
Sensor
This sensor uses a set of tines that acts like a tuning fork to
determine when the level of material or liquid has exceeded the
level setpoint. An electronic circuit makes the tines oscillate at a
specific frequency. When the level of material rises and covers
the tines, it stops them from oscillating. An electronic circuit
detects the change in the oscillating frequency and activates a
switch.

2. Sonic-Level
Sensor
In this sensor, a weight is attached to a line and the line is lowered from
the top of a tank. The weight will cause the line to have tension as long
as it is suspended in air. When the weight comes into contact with the
level of the material, the amount of tension will be reduced and a sensor
can detect this change. When the tension changes, a mechanism stops
the line from lowering and begins to retrieve the line. A spool is used
to reel the line in and the number of rotations the spool uses to reel the
line completely to the top is measured and converted to a level
measurement. Some of these sensors use a magnet in the spool and
the number of times the magnet passes a detector is counted. In other
applications a rotary potentiometer is connected to the spool and the
number of rotations is converted directly into a change of resistance.
Additional method to determine the level of liquid or granular solids in a tank is to weigh the
tank when it is empty and when it is full and develop a scale. For example, if a tank weighs
2000kg when it is empty and 3200kg when it is full, this means that the material weight 1200kg
when it is full. If the tank has a uniform shape, the material in the tank weight 600kg when it is
half full and 300kg when it is quarter full. A ratio can be developed by dividing the total weight
of the material by 100%. This means that 1% equals 12 kg. If the tank is in non-uniform shape,
a table will need to be developed to determine the weight at each height of the tank because
the values will not be linear. Figure below shows how weight is used to measure the level of
tanks.
The weighing system in this type of application uses load cell technology to measure
the weight. This type of sensor depends on the weight of the material to determine the level
in the tank. For this reason it is important that the material does not become wet because its
weight would not be the same as when dry and the instrument would think the tank was fuller
than it actually is.
Linear and rotary motion are used in many other sensors to sense pressure, flow, level and
temperature. In industrial application, position sensors are used to measure the distance
moved for many positioning and robotic applications.
The linear and rotary motion can be interchanged using ball screw mechanisms and
rack and pinion devices. Ball screw mechanisms can change rotary motion to linear motion.
While rack and pinion devices can change linear motion to rotary motion and vice versa. Figure
below shows an example of a rack-and-pinion and a ball screw mechanism.
There are various types of position sensors available in the industrial applications.
Table 7 below shows the types of position sensors.
2. Rotary Potentiometer
There are various types of motion sensors are being used in the industrial applications to
measure acceleration, velocity and speed. Both angular or linear speed and velocity are
important to be measured. The devices used to determine these values usually perform
indirect methods, such as utilizing piezoelectric materials to measure stress and the amount
of motion resulted is then calculated.
8.1 Accelerometer
Accelerometers are sensors that convert the motion that denotes the attribute of acceleration
into an electrical signal. In the industrial applications, accelerometers are used widely as
vibration monitoring devices for machines, structures and other types of motion detecting
devices for mines, highways and bridges. This is because small amounts of vibrations or
motions can be detected by the accelerometers can be amplified using signal conditioning.
These small signals are very important for early failure detection in most machines and
structures.
There are several types of accelerometers available in the industries, which are
seismic mass accelerometer, piezoelectric accelerometer, capacitive accelerometer,
piezoresistive accelerometer and thermal accelerometer. Figure 14 shows the types of
accelerometers.
8.2 Tachometer
Tachometers are devices used to measure the angular speed of a rotating shaft. The unit for
speed measurement of a shaft is revolutions per minute (rpm). Figure 15 below shows a
tachometer used in the industries.
Tachometers are usually employed by the industries to measure the speed of a motor
shaft for motor drives on conveyors, as well as the speed of rotation of the screw shaft on a
plastic injection moulding machine. Both of the speed must be controlled in order to get the
optimum productivity and quality requirements.
There are three types of tachometers, which are DC generator tachometer, drag-cup
tachometer and frequency-type tachometer. DC generator tachometer and drag-cup
tachometer work like an unregulated generator. The faster the generators run, the more
voltage they generate. The difference between these tachometers is that DC generator
tachometer generates a DC voltage, while drag-cup tachometer generates AC voltage.
The frequency-type tachometer counts pulses formed by a rotating field tachometer,
toothed rotor tachometer or the photocell tachometer.
9.0 pH SENSORS
pH scale is a scale that shows the acidity or basicity of a solution. It is based on the
concentration of hydrogen ions (H+ and OH-) in a solution. The pH scale is a number scale
that runs from 0-14. Figure 16 below shows the pH scale.
Figure 16 pH Scale
pH sensors are used to measure the pH scale in the solution. The pH measurement is
essential for water-quality standards and treatment. If processed water from an industrial plant
is to be returned to a river, it must be neutral, so it will be analysed to determine if it is acidic.
If it is acidic, alkaline material will be added to become a neutral solution. There are various
types of pH sensors are available in industrial applications. These sensors have a probe and
a signal conditioner. The probe is positioned in a location where it can test the liquid being
measured. Figure 17 below shows an example of pH sensor commonly used in industries.
Figure 17 pH Sensor
Relative humidity is the amount of moisture in the air compared to the total amount of moisture
that the air could retain when it is 100% saturated. It is vital to monitor the amount of air
moisture in industrial applications such as printing, plastic injection moulding raw material
storage and semiconductor manufacturing plant. Figure 18 below shows a type of humidity
sensor used in industrial application.
Most of humidity sensors have temperature measuring device as the relative humidity
depends on temperature. After the sensors have measured the relative humidity, their signals
are normally used in feedback systems for dehumidifiers or humidifiers to adjust the humidity
to the required point.
In the industrial application, it is essential to measure different types of gases. Usually gas
detectors are used to determine the gases used in certain process of the manufacturing or
also to detect even small amounts of any harmful gas that can be dangerous to the
environment and to the individual. Figure 19 below shows a cutaway picture of a gas detector.
When gases must be measured, commonly mass flow meter apparatuses are also
employed. The amount of gas must be detected and measured to confirm the proper amount
is being added to a process, or the amount must be verified for billing. Gas detector must use
a sealed sensing head and a signal conditioner to provide a signal that can be used as an
indicator or alarm.
12.1 Introduction
Cement manufacturing is one of the most challenging industries. This is because of the
environment of this type of plant has high concentrations of dust, extremes of temperature,
severe mechanical stresses on operating equipment and the process produces contamination
at all stages of production, from the procurement and milling of raw materials to final packing
and loading. Figure 20 and Figure 21below shows the typical environment of cement
manufacturing plants.
The process begins with limestone quarrying. Conventional explosive used for this
purpose. The limestone is then crushed using limestone crusher. The crushed limestone are
stored at limestone stockpile using conveyor. The crushed limestone are milled together with
clay and silica using raw mill to fine flour-like raw meal and it is then stored in blending silos.
The third process is heating process of the raw meal in kiln to dissociate calcium carbonate to
calcium oxide with the other components to form calcium silicates and aluminates and become
clinker. The clinker is then milled with a small amount of gypsum and becomes the final
product, which is cement. Cement is then transported to the cement silo and packaging section
through pneumatic conveying system.
Ingression of fine particles can lead to problems such as worn rotating parts,
mechanical imbalance, loose components and rubbing parts. However, this vibration can be
detected by appropriate sensors as these sensors can detect very low levels of vibration and
tiny changes in one vibration state to another. So, the appropriate action can be taken to avoid
malfunctionality of the components. Figure 23 shows accelerometer used in cement
manufacturing plant.
Figure 23 Accelerometer
It is important to ensure wear on the wear on the crushers as low as possible because
this will assure an efficient operation. This is done by monitoring the filling of the crushers. For
this purpose, either continuous lever sensors or point level sensors can be used, depending
on the types and methods of crusher feeding. Figure 24 shows the locations of level sensors
in the limestone crusher.
There are two types of level sensors commonly used in limestone crusher which are
radar sensor and microwave sensor. Radar sensor provides continuous measurement for
keeping the level within the ideal range. While microwave sensor detects the overfilling of the
crushers.
Level sensors are mounted in the silos to detect the level of the materials. There are
several types of level sensors used, which are Capacitance Level Switch, Rotary Paddle Level
Switch, Tuning Fork Level Switch, Vibrating Probe Level Switch, Electromechanical
Measuring System and RF-Capacitance Level Transmitter.
Figure 25 and Figure 26 show the location of the level sensors in the storage silos of
materials used in cement manufacturing plants.
Figure 27 Thermocouples
Pneumatic conveying is an effective method for transporting the raw meal and cement
inside the cement works. Input devices are used as a device in conveying control system to
ensure a stable flow of material through the pipes and channels of the conveying systems,
and for reliable monitoring of the compressors and feed pipes. For this purpose, pressure
sensors are used to ensure the smooth functionality of compressors and conveyor pipes.
Figure 29 below shows the location of pressure sensor in the pneumatic conveying system.
The second type of material transportation is using conveyor belt. It is vital to ensure
the conveyor belt runs smoothly. This is to ensure optimum productivity of the cement
manufacturing.
Figure 30 below shows laser volume flow meter is used in the conveyor belting system.
This sensor gives non-contact detection of the volume flow on conveyor belts, based on the
principle of laser light time-of-flight measurement.
13.0 CONCLUSION
As the types of sensors and the usage of the sensors had been discussed, we can conclude
that it is important to understand the working principles of the sensors in order to know what
is the best input device to be used in the process.
It is also important to know the condition of the industries in order to select the best
criteria of the input devices. The measurands and the characteristics of the signals to be
processed by the controller also must be identified so that the correct input devices output can
be produced and later be processed by the controller.
