The sensors in the rugged aluminium housing with IP67 protection are freely configurable and work
completely without contact.
With their up to three independent measuring tracks they meet the highest
requirements for safety and availability. Compared with analogue versions they are also less noise
susceptible. Ideal applications include wherever position information needs to be obtained directly in
the pressurized area of hydraulic cylinders at pressures up to 600 bar and enhanced safety is required.
This includes hydraulic drive technology, such as actuators in power plants, tilt sensing in rail
vehicles or controlling casting ladle movements in a continuous casting plant.
High resolution
and repeatability accuracy
With four different mechanical form factors and measuring ranges between 25 and 7620 mm they cover a
wide range of application requirements. The measuring systems offer high resolution along with repeat
accuracy of ≤ 0.5 µm with a measuring frequency of max. 1000 Hz. This makes them ideal for high dynamic
applications in harsh environments. Thanks to their compact dimensions these systems can also easily
replace already installed, non-redundant distance measuring systems. Often there are not even any
modifications necessary to the actuators and fixtures.
