← ScienceWhich risk increases when using capacitive proximity sensors near strong RF sources?
A)Spurious triggering events occur✓
B)Sensor capacitance value drifts
C)Electrode corrosion accelerates rapidly
D)Insulation experiences dielectric breakdown
💡 Explanation
Spurious triggering increases because parasitic capacitance allows RF energy coupling; leading to phantom events caused by electromagnetic interference; therefore erroneous triggering is likely, rather than physical changes which require very high signal amplitude.
