linear position sensor / potentiometer / analog / compact

For precise and linear measurements in large measurement ranges, high resolution, compact, without rod

FEATURES
Measurement ranges from 0 ... 100 mm to 0 ... 2000 mm
Non-linearity up to 0.05 % F.S.
Compact design, without rod
Displacement speed up to 10 m/s
Service life: >108 movements

The high resolution allows linear measurements to be accurately sized even in large measurement ranges. Conversion of rotatory and translational motion by spindles, wires or others is not necessary for direct displacement measurement.

Areas of application are:

Hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders
Detection of positions on coordinate
inspection machines
Displacement of plungers, knee levers or extruders
Coil and de coil lengths
Strokes on chassis
Metering strokes
Displacement sensors model 8718, using a resistance track made of conductive plastic material, are suitable for direct, accurate and absolute measurements of displacements and lengths.

Special processes are applied to give the resistance tracks low friction, low tendency to stick/slip, resistance to abrasion and long-term stability.
