Magtrol's line of Displacement detectors provide contactless measurement of absolute piston position in hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders suppliers and other applications. Their robust construction, large insensitivity to shocks and very long life (due to no moving parts and therefore no wear of components) make them both cost effective and very reliable. Magtrol transducers offer a wide range of operational temperatures and admissible pressure resistance for even the most demanding applications.
The transducer provides a direct 4-20 mA output signal corresponding to the measuring range, as well as VDC temperature output. As an option Magtrol offers the CST 113 Signal converter, which allows the complete chain to be calibrated according to the specific needs, either in current or voltage output. |

| Wilcoxon Research adds a displacement sensor to its popular PC420 Series of 4-20 mA vibration detection. The PC420D is the first IEPE displacement transducer and 4-20 mA vibration professional transmitter packaged as a single sensor. The PC420D sensor outputs a 4-20 mA signal based on the displacement level of the machine vibration. The 4-20 mA output is determined by first measuring the peak to peak vibration, then converting that level to a 4-20 mA signal. Because balance components tend to dominate the vibration spectrum when viewed in displacement units, the PC420D sensor is able to track the balance component of machines, one of the most sought after parameters. Integrating this signal into an existing MANUFACTURERS OF PLC, DCS or SCADA system simplifies real time health monitoring because vibration, formerly considered too complex, can now be trended in easily understood units of mils or millimeters of displacement. Measuring displacement can unmask hidden problems and provide data in easy to understand measurement units. Instead of converting to displacement after the measurement is taken, a common practice in diagnostic vibration industrial monitoring systems which can introduce errors known as “ski slopes”, the PC420D sensor integrates at the measurement point for the cleanest vibration data. The PC420D is ideal for condition based monitoring and predictive maintenance of motors in the speed (frequency) range of 300 rpm to 60,000 rpm (5 Hz to 1,000 Hz). The PC420D can be widely used to monitor balance of plant industrial instrumentation such as pump motors, blowers, professional fan motors, compressor manufacturer motors, and a wide variety of device tool drive motors to significantly reduce failure rates in the field. |

Description
The displacement sensor D-01 makes use of the internal strain sensitivity of the FBG. The FBG is fixed inside a ruggedised stainless steel housing between two anchoring points. The housing is foreseen of a sliding mechanism that allows both ends to move freely relative to each other and an integrated spring mechanism that allows to industrial slide over large distances without overstressing the FBG.
In order to compensate for temperature influences, a high resolution temperature probe is integrated within the housing.
The housing is made of stainless steel and is terminated with an optical interconnection or an integrated optical adapter. Pigtail lengths and connector manufacturer can be specified following the needs of every application.
Features
The displacement sensor D-01 can measure displacement and temperature with a resolution of 0,05% Full Scale and 0,1 °C respectively and an accuracy of 1% Full Scale and 1 °C respectively. The displacement range can be chosen between 1 and 8 cm .
Applications
The displacement sensor D-01 can be applied for positioning measurements. The sensor can also be used with special packers in bore holes to determine geological settlements or can be surface mounted to detect movements between the anchoring points. |

| The Series 925 Linear Rope reel Sensor can be used in any linear application up to 1200 inches. The system consists of a heavy-duty spring motor assembly attached to a precision-machined cable drum. As the cable is pulled off of the precision drum, the drum rotates a shaft connected to it. The shaft is precisely geared such that the full number of revolutions of the drum is equal to the appropriate number of revolutions required by the chosen sensor. There are three basic models. The Series 925 Linear Cable Professional reel Sensor can be used with our Series 1746 Resolver Input Card and a Series 2120 PLC MANUFACTURERS Transducer Module. |

The non-contact open industrial measuring systems are for high displacement velocities and high accuracies, commonly used in clean environments.
Non-contact open industrial encoders rely on the air gap between the encoder head and scale to be uniform over the measuring range. The flatness of the mounting surface and the parallelism of the machine guideway is important.
Depending on the version of the measuring system, two different measuring professional scales are available:
glass (partially ROBAX glassceramic) or steel . |
