Magnetostriction - A Milestone in Measurement Technology
The heart of MTS sensors is the ferromagnetic measuring element, also known as the waveguide, and a movable position magnet that generates a
direct-axis magnetic field in the waveguide. When a current or interrogation pulse passes through the waveguide, a second magnetic field is created radially around the waveguide. The interaction between the magnetic field in the waveguide and the magnetic field produced by the position magnet generates a strain pulse which travels at a constant ultrasonic speed from its point of generation, the measurement point, to the end of the waveguide where it is transformed into an electric pulse in the sensor element. The resulting signal is processed by the specialized electronics of the Temposonics sensor. With our extensive know-how of ferromagnetic materials, magnetic effects and ultrasonic processes, MTS remains unrivalled in performance standards for non-contacting position measurement of the highest precision. |

Magnetostrictive Industrial position sensors for Mobile Hydraulics: PCST25
Technical advantages:
Protection class IP69K
Compression-proof up to 400 bar
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.

MTS has developed the Temposonics M series especially for integration into hydraulic cylinders manufacturer. The sensor is protected against shock, vibration and extreme environmental conditions and offers an unrivalled measurement rate, outstanding repeatability (better than +/- 0.005%) and stable linearity (better than 0.04%). External effects on the measurement signal are virtually excluded by interference suppression for HF electric fields up to 200 V/m, vibration resistance up to 30gav and shock resistance of more than 100g. Changes of the hydraulic oil during operation are without effect on the measurement. The magnetostrictive technology of Temposonics sensors was invented by MTS and widely used and well proven in stationary industrial applications for many years. The magnetostrictive measurement principle is a warranty for wear and maintenance free absolute, contactless position measurement.
Temposonics MH offers continuous measurement of both - position and speed - during the position change. The integrated sensor electronics permits parameter adjustment for evaluation of the cylinder piston speed and end position attenuation can be omitted. Due to the output of a velocity signal, highly dynamic control of the movement profile of several independent hydraulic cylinders is possible for the first time. It enables the power actuators to be developed into complex movement axes and permits realization of high-quality control systems. With electro hydraulic parallel guidance of excavators or loaders, for example, Temposonics offer high signal quality and simple analogue transmission due to screening and a short signal lead. |

PCFP24: a magnetostrictive Position sensor manufacturers as flat as a ruler
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 suppliers 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.
