Smart sensor holds high position
Magnetostrictive Position Sensor
Temposonics R-Series magnetostrictive position sensors is a digitally-based smart sensor featuring enhanced output capabilities, sensing performance & accuracy. The series includes the diagnostic LEDs and external programming capabilities standard in the new product platform to ensure that sensor installation and troubleshooting efforts are kept to a minimum. Red and green indicators located on the sensor may be monitored for errors, EMI immunity, and signal to noise performance in harsh electrical environments. Users can expect sensing resolutions as low as 1 micron with an output linearity of ? ±0.01% and repeatability of ? ±0.001% of full scale. Reverse polarity and over-voltage protection to 36 Vdc will help ensure sensor failure does not occur due to mis-wiring.
