Measuring Transducer for Angle of Rotation, Rugged Design, Programmable
Measuring transmitter with contactless, capacitive sensing system for acquiring the angular position of a shaft.
- Non-contact capacitive sensing system / Wear-free
- Measuring range, direction of rotation, characteristic curve, switching point, and other additional functions programmable via PC
- Rotation angle measuring range: 0°–50° or 0°–350°
- Measurement output (measurement-supply circuit) using 2-wire technology (4..20 mA signal)
- Display of the current value and graphical representation of the measured value on screen over an extended period
- Fixed mechanical position and fine adjustment of the analog output; zero point and measurement span adjustable independently of each other
- Output characteristic curve: Linear, programmable as a V-characteristic or as a freely selectable linearization curve
- Drive shaft can rotate freely / No damage possible if the end value of the rotation angle measurement range is exceeded
- Serial interface
- Permissible static load on the shaft: max. 1000 N (radial) and max. 500 N (axial)
- Field-mounted unit in a ruggedized housing / Vibration- and shock-resistant, suitable for use in heavy machinery and shipbuilding
1 Safety Instructions
A load-indepent DC-signal with a range of 4 to 20 mA is read out from the measurement output. The robust housing has made this unit ideal for machines, ship building, transport, construction of vehicles and in the chemical industry.
- Patented contactless capacitive system, wear-free
- Measuring range, direction of rotation, characteristics, output changeover and other functions can be programmed via PC: facilitates planning and project work, short lead times, minimal inventory
- Angle of rotation measuring range: 0°…50° or 0°…350°
- Measurement output (measuring/supply circuit) utilizes 2-wire connection (4 to 20 mA signal)
- Simulation of measured value allows to test subsequent control circuits, control loops or measuring circuits during installation
- Display of present measurands and graphical representation on screen for longer time periods
- Adjustment of mechanical position and fine adjustment of the analog output, zero point and span may be set independently
- Programmable output characteristics: linear, V-characteristic or freely selectable linearization curve
- Shaft can be turned through full, no damage occurs even if the upper limit value of the measuring range is exceeded
- Serial interface
- Permissible static load on the shaft: max. 1000 N (radial), max. 500 N (axial)
- Surface mounting device in rugged housing (IP67): vibration and shock resistant
