Countermeasures Against Noise
Noise Canceller Function for Highly Sensitive Impedance
Detection
The K7L Liquid Leakage Sensor Amplifier detects liquids with
impedance as high as 50 M and connects to the Sensing Band
through a cable that can be extended up to 50 meters.
Countermeasures against external noise are especially important for
the Sensing Band and connecting cable because they pick up
external noise like an antenna. The K7L incorporates the noise
canceller function described below.
Connected with 3-conductor Cable that Offsets Inductive
Noise (Patent Pending)
A VCT cable with three conductors (lines) is used. Line 1 is connected
to the Sensing Band and line 2 is left open. Lines 1 and 2 are almost
in the same position and thus will experience the same noise level.
The K7L obtains the difference between these signals. This means
that the noise signals in lines 1 and 2 are offset against each other
and a reading for the signal, without inductive noise, can be made.
