inductance

The sensor's operational characteristics can be categorized into three main types: static, dynamic, and environmental characteristics.

(α) Static Characteristics: These describe the sensor’s performance under stable indoor conditions. This includes scenarios where there is no shock, vibration, or acceleration (unless those are part of the measured parameters), and the input changes very slowly. Standard indoor conditions are typically defined as a temperature of 25°C ± 10°C, relative humidity below 90%, and atmospheric pressure ranging from 88 to 108 kPa. These conditions represent the ideal environment for testing and calibrating the sensor’s baseline performance.

(b) Dynamic Characteristics: These refer to how the sensor responds over time when subjected to varying input signals. Dynamic characteristics focus on the sensor’s ability to track rapid changes in the measured quantity, including aspects like response time, frequency range, and stability during transient conditions. Understanding these traits is crucial for applications where real-time data acquisition is necessary.

(c) Environmental Characteristics: These describe how the sensor performs when exposed to different external conditions such as temperature fluctuations, mechanical vibrations, or shocks. Environmental characteristics can be further divided into two categories: "operational environment features," which relate to the sensor's behavior during normal operation, and "non-operational environment features," which concern its performance when not actively measuring. These factors are essential in determining the sensor’s reliability and durability in real-world applications.

By understanding these characteristics, engineers can better select and apply sensors that meet the specific requirements of their systems, ensuring accuracy, longevity, and consistent performance across various operating conditions.
