Measurement range 0 ... 100 to 0 ... 5750 mm
Position sensor manufacturer ASM has extended its successful family of magnetostrictive Position Sensors POSICHRON® with a new sensor series PCST25, which has been designed for special requirements in the field of mobile hydraulics.
The PCST25 series with measurement ranges up to 5,750mm and linearity up to 0.02% for high accuracy, can be used in an operation pressure zone up to 400bar and is already available at ASM.
The extremely robust construction of POSICHRON® sensors with up to an IP69K rating guarantees years of trouble-free operation. Due to their high electrical compatibility and extremely high resistance against shock and vibrations, POSICHRON® sensors are best suited for applications in extreme hostile environments, such as with off-road construction equipment.
Absolute magnetostrictive linear position sensor for narrow installation ASM
Position sensor manufacturer ASM introduces a new magnetostrictive position sensor with a unique extremely flat housing: the POSICHRON® model PCFP24. With a height of only 12 mm, the "flat pack" is suited for numerous applications in narrow installation environments.
POSICHRON® is an absolute, contact-free and wear-free measuring system designed for almost all industrial applications. The PCFP24 has absolutely no protrusion in form of screws, connectors or probes jutting out of the 12 mm construction. This feature makes PCFP24 best suited for applications in narrow installation environments.
The sensor can be installed easily by means of mounting brackets. With this design the sensor position can be adjusted over its whole mechanical length without any mechanical collision. The system is wear- and maintenance-free and features high shock and vibration resistance.
The PCFP24 is available with analog interfaces for voltage (10V) or current (4-20mA) output as well as with SSI or digital pulse output Start/Stop, which makes it possible to bind the sensor into subsequent electronics for bus systems. The sensors measurement range is up to 5750 mm.
