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. |

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. |

Designed specifically for use in hydraulic and pneumatic actuator applications, where the sensor is fitted inside the pressurised environment.
Available in a choice of two mounting styles (Internal or External), these sensors can be supplied in lengths to suit actuator suppliers strokes up to 1100mm. |

What is a laser?
Laser light consists of light waves of identical length which have a defined phase relation (coherence).
Laser systems also have a relatively small angle of radiation.
What are the distinctive features of laser systems?
Laser systems are used where detection of small objects or precise positioning is required. Due to the small angle of divergence this can be achieved over long ranges.
How dangerous are industrial laser sensors?
Due to the small angle of divergence laser beams are focussed on a small area. The energy and power density on this area is extremely high. Depending on the technical data of the laser transmitter, this is a risk for human health, specially for the eye. ifm laser detection conform to the Euro standard EN60825 and the international standard IEC60825. These standards describe the operation of laser systems. In the standard laser systems are divided in 5 classes.
ifm laser sensors are classified in the laser protection class 2. Thus the laser power, also in the setting mode is max. 1 mW. When the laser beam hits the human eye the eyelid is instinctively closed. When hitting the unprotected eye the laser beam must cause no damage within a time of 0.25 s. |
